Plant description
Tough, tolerant and easy to grow, this hardy hibiscus is a treat from late summer to mid-autumn, when its branches are laden with large pink flowers. Each of these is made up with a collar of rounded petals that are finely laced with darker pink veining, and at their centre is a cluster of smaller petals that create an attractive ruffled effect.
A wonderfully decorative deciduous shrub, Hibiscus syriacus Pink Chiffon is invaluable for helping prolong seasonal colour and interest.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

How to care for Hibiscus syriacus Pink Chiffon ('Jwnwood4') (PBR) (Chiffon Series):
Plant in a sheltered, sunny location with moist, fertile soil. While they can tolerate some dryness, consistent moisture will encourage lush growth and abundant blooms.
If growing them in large containers, protect the roots from harsh winter conditions by wrapping pots and plants using horticultural fleece or move to a sheltered spot such as a southerly facing wall.
Mulch the base of border plants with a dry material like bark chips to insulate the roots and prevent frost damage. Regularly remove spent blooms to prolong flowering.
Pruning should be done in late winter or early spring, before new growth emerges. Prune back to strong, healthy buds to encourage new growth and shape the plant. Removing old and damaged wood will also help to improve air circulation and reduce the risk of disease.

Please note:
This shrub is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
