Hibiscus syriacus, also known as Rose of Sharon, is a deciduous shrub in the mallow family (Malvaceae), growing 1.5 to 3 metres tall with an upright, bushy form. It produces large, showy flowers from mid-summer to autumn, each with five delicate petals in colours ranging from white and pink to lilac, purple, or blue, often featuring a deep red or purple centre. Its leaves are dark green, toothed, and usually three-lobed. Hardy and tolerant of heat and urban pollution, it is widely planted as an ornamental shrub in gardens and parks for its long-lasting and abundant bloom.
