Award-winning Hibiscus syriacus White Chiffon® (Rose of Sharon) is a bushy deciduous shrub noted for its elegant, pristine white, large, double flowers, up to 4 in. across (10 cm), adorned with five large outer petals surrounding a center of small, petaloid stamens. Blooming continuously from late summer to fall, each flower lasts about one day and stands out against the green foliage of broadly ovate leaves. A very useful, structural shrub for the back of the border.
