Rose of Sharon

Dear Anne, I appreciate you so much since we have lived in Charlotte for just over a year. We are in South Mecklenburg County and are interested in the Rose of Sharon for our yard. They were beautiful but touchy in Illinois.

Where can I purchase a hardy variety near Pineville or Charlotte, such as Freedom or any of the four month blooming, more common ones?

Thanks.

Anne's response:

The independent garden centers in your area usually have the ability to special order a specific cultivar of a plant if they do not have one in stock. Rose of Sharon is available in most of the garden centers in your area although it is a plant that the “big box” retailers do not usually carry.
