Hibiscus syriacus Jeanne D'Arc - Double White Rose of Sharon

Hibiscus syriacus Jeanne D'Arc grows 6 to 10 feet in full sun to light shade. The Jeanne D'Arc Rose of Sharon is capable of surviving on little or no extra water in a shaded nook in the garden but flowering will be exceptionally sparse and the plants look like death warmed over. Even an irregular modest helping of water helps immeasurably. Given good conditions Hibiscus syriacus Jeanne D'Arc will be a specacular addition to the garden with its long lasting double white flowers. Hibiscus syriacus Jeanne D'Arc is a nectar and larval food source for the Painted Lady Butterfly, White Checkered Skipper, and the Northern White Skipper and is a great addition to the butterfly garden. Hibiscus syriacus Jeanne D'Arc grows 4 feet or so in a season. Jeanne D'Arc Rose of Sharon blooms from late Spring through the Summer. Hibiscus syriacus Jeanne D'Arc is not picky about soils and is Winter hardy at least into the low teens, my coldest garden.
