Landscape Notes: The Purple Althea Hibiscus is easy to grow just like tradition althea plants. They tend to be pest and disease resistant so you won't need to spray any harmful chemicals. They are drought tolerant once established so if you forget about your pretty tree on occasion it will be just fine. You will want to water when the ground is dry in the growing season for brighter blooms. This Purple hibiscus tree is even tolerant of pollution, poor soil, and heat!

Exposure/Culture: Purple Double Althea prefer soils that are acidic and well drained. They perform best in locations that receive full to partial sun.

Other Notes: The Purple Rose of Sharon tree is low maintenance, deer, pest, and disease resistant, attractive to butterflies, beautiful and unique!
