The Blueberry Smoothie™ Hardy Hibiscus has truly spectacular blossoms in a rich true purple, a rare color for the garden, and even rarer in fall, when this beautiful shrub is in full bloom. Growing 6 to 8 feet tall, with a dense, bushy habit, this deciduous shrub begins to bloom in mid-summer, and keeps going continuously right up to the first hard frost. Bring vibrant color to your late summer and fall garden so easily, with a heat and sun tolerant plant you will love growing.
Full sun is best for the Blueberry Smoothie™ Hardy Hibiscus, but some partial shade is tolerated. Any well-drained soil will give you great results, and once established this plant is drought tolerant, and it loves to grow in heat and sunshine. Water deeply from time to time and use some shrub fertilizer in spring. Pests, diseases and deer are normally no problem and urban conditions are easily tolerated. Prune in spring for the best results.
