Hibiscus syriacus 'Red Pillar' (Standard)
Choose Red Pillar Rose of Sharon Standard if you want late-summer color in a narrow tree form; the tradeoff is that it needs a sunny, open spot and won’t give much privacy below the canopy.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B+ | The upright tree form and late bloom make a strong accent, but it is more refined than large and dramatic. |
| Growth Rate | B | It grows at a steady pace without giving the instant size of faster ornamental trees. |
| Maintenance | B | Plan on light pruning to keep the head shaped and the trunk clean. |
| Deer Resistance | C | Young trees like this can be browsed or rubbed by deer, so protect it while it establishes where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | A- | The narrow habit works well where a wider flowering tree would crowd a walkway or bed. |
| Screening Value | C | It adds height and flowers, but the raised canopy does not block views near the ground. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this for a sunny front bed, patio corner, or entry where a shrub form would feel too wide and a shade tree would be too much.
| Mature Height | 9 ft |
|---|---|
| Mature Width | 4 ft |
| Hardiness Zones | 5a-9b |
| Spacing | 4.5 ft |
| Sun | Full Sun |
| Moisture | Average to moist |
| Growth Habit | Upright, tree-form standard, narrow crown |
Yes, but remove low shoots as they appear to keep the trunk clean.
No, buy it for mid-to-late season color, not spring flowers.
Not by itself; use it as an accent above lower companion plants.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
