PETITTI Rose of Sharon Spotlight | Grow for Pollinators, Blooms & Drought Tolerance

- Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus Syriacus) is a fantastic shrub to grow in Northeast Ohio! They tolerate our heavy, clay soils, perform well in less-than-desirable growing conditions, and bloom throughout the heat of summer. Watch this video with Noelle, Horticulturist, and Education Director with Petitti Garden Centers, to learn more about growing Rose of Sharon trees and shrubs. Though they require a little extra pruning maintenance, these trees and shrubs make great, blooming additions to the landscape.
If you're concerned about Rose of Sharon seedlings, try cultivated varieties like Proven Winners Azurri Blue Satin and Chiffon Series. These and a few others are considered to "set few to no seeds" reducing their aggressive seed production and increasing their ability to develop their showy, pollinator attractive blooms for a longer period of time. If concerned with seed viability, deadheading or cutting back the plant before it develops seeds is best.
If you currently have older varieties of Rose of Sharon that produce seedlings, try mulching to reduce the germination of seeds in the landscape. Removing the seed pods before they drop can also reduce the number of seedlings that sprout in the surrounding area.

Thank you. It’s the first time I’ve received such a comprehensive explanation of all the different types!
That was very informative video! Very helpful. I have Rose of Sharon in my cottage garden in Fl, full sun.
It is a substitute for hollyhocks for me. I dearly love them! Very cottage gardeny.
I bought white chiffon rose of sharon last year and it made a lot of little seedlings. I have dug them up and am growing them bigger to line the side of my driveway as a hedge. I just bought a pink chiffon and I hope it has viable seeds. It's not such a bad thing if you have space to plant them.
❤thank you for sharing about the Rose of Sharon flower plants..I learned alot today!! I have hibiscus 🌺 and they do well in St Louis Mo..need more water when so hot and humid here too
I have 5 and they’re all thriving in my 8a garden- thank you for your detailed content 😊
I have several, one of them is roughly 12-15 ft. High. Love them and so do pollinators.
Noelle: I really liked Sugertip but as you went on with description and how to care for the specific Rose of Sharon thought they were all spectacular. As always, thanks for the in -depth overview of each shrub and how they should be cared for!
I'm in Raleigh NC with clay soil, hot and humid nights and sparse summer rain. All my various Hibiscus syriacus do respond well to added water and nutrients in mid summer.
What about the Japanese beetles? I don’t want to encourage any more into my garden 🌸
I have slight sawfly damage to the leaves of my Hibiscus hybrids like Kopper King and Lord Baltimore, but I don't have any pest damage to the syriacus, which is typically not a species that's in the hybrid mix. I fortunately do not have Japanese beetles in my garden at all, but if I did and the damage was significant I would likely eliminate those plants for a few years. @@katherinecornette5315
Thank you for your tips. Trying to learn not to kill everything I plant.
Excellent information on your video!! Thank you for being so thorough and I love visually see the various varieties as well as a comparison of their heights & growth patterns.
Best video information- especially without background distractions or nonsense chatter. So great to have a REAL informative video. Thank you!!!! Looking for more content from you. ❤️
great info and great presentation! bravo
I have three Pink Chiffons. Thought they were supposed to be sterile. Nope, lots of little babies this Spring.
I have a Rose of Sharon 6 years full sun never has bloomed. Seattle area no problem with winter.
This is my favorite plant, cause it’s one of the few that I haven’t managed to screw up😅
I have been shown a totally different tile of a Rose of Sharon‼️
I just bought one. Here in Ontario, Canada zone 5
So i have a question. Im interested in the tall one's. I dont have to prune them or cut them back in winter? You mentioned they bloom on new wood.
I have a mature Purple Pillar about 12 feet tall, never pruned, and it blooms only at the very top, which is not what I want. I will begin to selectively prune in late winter, starting with the tallest stalks and cut down to a branching node. I will not hedge the entire plant because I do not want to lose the pillar habit.
@@paulacothren3591 thank you! 🌿 🌸
The native box turtles here in Texas love to eat the flowers after they fall off.
Is the white pillar rose of Sharon a nightmare spreader? I just planted two in a landscaped area and now I’m nervous. It is not listed as a sterile kind.
In a conversation with PW concerning their Rose of Sharon varieties, they said the two Pillar types (white & purple) produce very few seedlings. They have a semi-double flower which reduces pollination and seed production. Because Rose of Sharon are so tough, they can tolerate being pruned after their bloom cycle finishes in fall. This would take away any possibility of seed drop.
Great video, but Rose of Sharon is NOT used to best advantage as a hedging plant. Please use it individually as a specimen.
What about deer resistance?
Unfortunately the Deer in our area like to eat Rose of Sharon. You can try protecting them with a repellant like Plantskydd, though!
Nice but not drought n heat tolerant … and the south is like an oven now!🥵
I am in Austin and I have a chiffon lavender and I rarely rarely water and they bloom nonstop
I am in zone 9 in Fl & mine are in full sun & doing great. I mulch with oak leaves & keep them watered.
Beautiful but not helpful. I need to see a video of you actually pruning them to get the right shape.
