Hibiscus x 'Minsybv3s01', also known as Rose of Sharon Paraplu Violet® is an easy-care hybrid rose of Sharon that boasts extra-large flowers and positively extraordinary color. Its cool blue-violet blooms have a glowing, almost iridescent effect, especially in the mornings and evenings. You have to see it for yourself to believe it! Like its sister plant, Paraplu Pink Ink hibiscus, it blooms for weeks on end without you having to lift a finger. Thanks to their naturally graceful habit, Paraplu roses of Sharon don't require much pruning. If you wish to prune them, however, early spring is the best time to do so. Note that rose of Sharon is quite late to leaf out in spring, so be patient with it.
