We’re not the only ones that think the Purple Pillar Rose of Sharon is amazing. This stunning deciduous shrub won several prestigious awards including the Silver Medal from the Planetarium and the Green Thumb award from the Direct Gardening Association. And with sterile seeds, this variety doesn’t have the bothersome seeding habits of earlier varieties.
This exquisite plant grows quickly and erupts with dazzling semi-double blooms with violet-red throats that streak outward into its soft lavender margins all summer long and into fall. These blooms are bright and abundant.
Do you like butterflies? How about hummingbirds? Well, this hardworking shrub does too, and the feeling is mutual. The Purple Pillar Rose of Sharon becomes a pollinator’s paradise.
The Purple Pillar Rose of Sharon also features medium green foliage that looks attractive as a hedge even when the plant is not in bloom.
Lucky for you, the Purple Pillar Rose of Sharon won’t make you work hard, either. It keeps its shape without pruning. This purple pillar prefers full sun with medium moisture, well-drained soil. The Purple Pillar Rose of Sharon is deer-resistant and grows well in clay.
Where should you plant your Purple Pillar Rose of Sharon? This plant is perfect for vertical interest. If you want an accent plant for your front entry, this one is perfect. If you want a tall container plant for your poolside, this purple pillar is perfect for that as well. We adore this plant as a floriferous shrub with an exceptional ability to provide a luxurious privacy screen.
