Hibiscus syriacus 'Snowdrift' is a multi-stemmed grower that produces large, single, white flowers which cover the bush from mid-summer to early-autumn. It is able to grow equally well in cold and hot climates. To encourage new stems to flower the following summer, it is recommended to prune Hibiscus syriacus 'Snowdrift' by half after the flowering period. Hibiscus syriacus is deciduous and native to Korea and south-central and southeast China.

Foliage

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.
