[Leica] IMG: Rose of Sharon

[Christopher Crawford]

They also get quite large. I have a bunch of them that were originally planted by my grandmother more than 20 years ago (the house I live in used to be my grandparents house). They're over 8 feet tall now!

    Yes, they make a nice addition.  But, they do appear in other places 
    after a year or so.  Ours came from my wife's grandmother's home in 
    Mississippi.  I thought the ones we planted were all one color, but we 
    now have everything from pure white to deep lavender.
