Description

I planted a row of shrubs between my yard and the neighbors a few years ago and have been enjoying the 'fruit' of that labor every year since! I planted three varieties of Rose of Sharon (hibiscus) alternating pink, white and blue.9 some would argue these are purple!)
These Rose of Sharon plants grow quickly and produce large beautiful flowers starting in July.

It is great to have shrubs that require very little care, and provide beauty in the hot, sunny summer garden. Few shrubs are more heat- and humidity-tolerant than Hibiscus, which basks in temperatures that make others wilt and brown out!


The showy, tropical blooms are a powder blue with a crimson eye that bleeds outward and bloom most of the summer into late fall. Of course, for any plant to find a home in my garden they must attract butterflies and these produce enough nectar to attract plenty of butterflies and bees! These plants have given my a lovely living barrier and frame a wonderful pathway to walk through and enjoy the gorgeous flowers!

I really appreciate you taking time to look at my artwork. Thank you so much!

I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!
