Seventy Rose of Sharon bushes...
When my neighbor gave me forty Rose of Sharon plants pulled from her garden, I didn't know if they'd even grow... but planted them, and today they're the most prolific plant I've seen! Each bush is trimmed to a height of about five feet- and each year they gorw another foot and a half, which we trim back down. The are the last to show leaves in late spring, but make up for it with a plume of hundreds of flowers each- that lasts from midsummer going well into fall. Here are a few photos of the range of color- some are white, others pink , some purple- they're amazing and beautiful plants...)
