With its big sized, semi-double, lavander pink flovers, this is one of the nicest amongst all the garden Hibiscus varieties!
Thomas Jefferson (the President of the USA from 1801 to 1809) was a big fan of the different Rose Mallows and many of them were present in the garden of his house. Perhaps it was just because of him that Rose Mallow was one of the Victorian period of America`s most popular ornamental plants until the Second World War.
Its original natural habitat is in Korea, China and North-East India, but once this plant was mistakenly believed to originate from the Near East, hence the species name: syriacus.
It is South Korea`s national flower!
Its popularity was decreasing for a while, but thanks to the appearance of the new wonderful flowered varieties, it is sought-after again! It is very easy to raise, hardened, resistant, a spectacularly blooming shrub for a long time in summer, which is excellent to establish shorn or unshorn hedges as well!
