It loves hot summers and blooms best in 6 to 8 hours of full sun. Good air circulation is important for disease prevention and for best overall performance. It is fairly pest and disease free; deer resistant; and heat, humidity (with good air circulation), air pollution, and mildly salt tolerant. Cold hardy for hibiscus, it can over winter in temperatures as cold as 20 degrees below zero with a heavy mulch covering the root ball to insulate it. Purple Pillar Hibiscus has a naturally attractive form and only needs pruning to tidy up its shape and/or to maintain a desired size. Pruning back stems also encourages more blooms and can increase air circulation within the plant to help prevent disease, but pruning should be done sparingly, after flowering has finished. Removing up to ⅓ of the overall shrub creates a fuller bush with larger blooms. Keep in mind that these shrubs bloom directly on older wood or on shoots that come off old wood.Keep Reading to find out how to plant your cuttings or scroll to the endGenusHibiscusSpeciessyriacusVarietyPurple PillarItem FormcuttingsZone5 - 9Bloom Start to EndEarly Summer - Late SummerHabitUprightHeight10 ftWidth8 ftAdditional CharacteristicsDouble Blooms, Easy Care Plants, FlowerBloom ColorPurpleFoliage ColorDark GreenLight RequirementsFull Sun, Part ShadeMoisture RequirementsDry, Moist, well-drainedResistanceDrought Tolerant, Heat TolerantSoil ToleranceNormal, loamy, PoorUsesBeds, Border, SpecimenHere is how to plant your cuttingsPlanting your Cuttings from Rose of SharonWhen to take rose of Sharon cuttings is not complicated, as taking cuttings from rose of Sharon bushes is easy and versatile.
