Althea

Althea


Althea (Hibiscus syriacus) also called Rose of Sharon. This is not a true rose but is in the mallow family. Since it blooms on the new wood each summer, it is easily controlled and the size can be maintained by cutting it back in late winter or early spring. It will live for a number of years and does throw out a few seeds to share plants with others.
