Is Rose of Sharon another name for Hibiscus? (or maybe I'm just showing my ignorance . . . again!).

You're right Sheila. It's the name given to the winter hardy hibiscus. This has caused much confusion. There are other plants given the same name.

Thanks Paul . . . yes, plant names give plenty of opportunity for confusion :)

I have a white one but not even close to blooming yet. Lots of buds starting to appear. Pink one is pretty too.
