Sugar Tip Althea Tree Form

Hibiscus syriacus 'America Irene Scott'

Sugar Tip Althea Tree Form is pure garden elegance with a sweet twist. This unique Rose of Sharon is grafted into a charming tree shape, showing off its fluffy double pink blooms from spring through summer - each blossom delicately set against variegated leaves. It grows 8 feet in height and 5 in width. Whether flanking a walkway, framing a porch, or adding flair to a sunny border, Sugar Tip brings soft romance and cottage landscape charm wherever it’s planted.

  • Deciduous tree
  • Moderate growth rate
  • Double pink blooms with ruffled texture and soft color
  • Creamy variegated foliage adds brightness and contrast
  • Grafted tree form gives a polished, ornamental look

Sugar Tip prefers full sun for best flowering and thrives in a wide range of soils. Unlike many altheas, Sugar Tip produces sterile flowers, meaning no unwanted seedlings - just pure color and beauty. With its compact size and non-invasive habit, it’s ideal for those who want a statement tree that’s equal parts graceful and bold. Hardy in USDA zones 5 through 9, a great choice for North Texas.
