The Althea ‘Aphrodite’, also known as a Rose of Sharon, is a truly stunning flowering shrub that will add a burst of color to your landscape. Aphrodite flourishes in full sun to part shade, making it adaptable to a variety of garden settings. The true showstopper of the Aphrodite Althea lies in its captivating flowers. Unlike some hibiscus varieties, Aphrodite produces single, ruffled blooms, each measuring up to 4 inches in diameter. These eye-catching blossoms boast a clear pink hue, further accentuated by a dramatic dark red eye in the center. The long bloom period, stretching from early summer to fall, ensures your garden will be awash with color for months. This Althea is not only visually stunning but also surprisingly low-maintenance. It thrives in average, well-drained soil and tolerates poor soils and some drought conditions. This heat and humidity tolerant shrub is a perfect choice for gardeners in warmer regions. Additionally, it requires minimal pruning, needing only occasional shaping in spring for a well-maintained appearance. So, add a touch of elegance and long-lasting color to your garden with the captivating Althea ‘Aphrodite.’
