The Hibiscus Diana Tree Form pictured in the landscape setting is a single white 'Diana' to show the shape of the tree form tree you will be receiving. The inset picture is the bloom of the Diana with single pure white flowers. The trees are shipped bare root in a dormant state as a full 3 to 5 foot specimen, easy to transplant, and ready to grow next spring.
Your Diana trees are three year old trees and will produce masses of 3 to 5 inch single pure white flower blooms all summer long. Peak bloom takes place in August.
Use as an entrance to a garden or along walkways or drives. Or place in a large container as a patio potted plant.
Care:
Rose-of-Sharon Hibiscus is valued for large flowers produced in mid-to late summer when few other shrubs bloom. The plant grows in sun or partial shade and in any soil. The growth rate ranges from slow to moderate, and transplanting is easy. The single or double flowers are in shades of red, pink, white and purple, depending on the cultivar. Peak bloom takes place in August. Prune in late winter or early spring. Frequent severe pruning gives fewer but larger flowers; no or little pruning gives many small flowers. Young plants are not as hardy as older plants.
