Sugar Tip® Rose of Sharon
Hibiscus syriacus ‘America Irene Scott’ PP20,579
Every leaf of this delightful new Rose of Sharon is splashed with creamy white around the edges, giving the plant its name of Sugar Tip®. A bit more formal in appearance than other hibiscus, it makes a fine specimen, windbreak, or tall foundation plant. Fully double, pink flowers appear in midsummer backed by the variegated foliage lending an almost tropical air to the garden. Does not produce seed like other cultivars. Introduced by Proven Winners® ColorChoice®. (CPBRAF)
