Red Hibiscus Shrubs Doesn't Care About Soil Quality
The Syriacus is an Asian native species. However, it is well-adapted to the mid-range U.S.D.A. growing zones within the United States. It cares little about soil quality and will tolerate different mediums--clay, sand, or even a few rocks. However, it prefers a spot that drains quickly.
Syriacus is drought-tolerant. Please give it some water during dry spells, but it will survive in between and bounce back from any stress.
Other Common Names for the Syriacus
This species, when referring to scarlet or another color, also carries other common names, including the following:
- Rose of China
- Rose-of-Sharon

- Althea
This species has no connection to roses, despite the nickname Rose of China.
The Red Shrubs Will Draw Pollinators To Your Yard
Pollinator insects, including bumblebees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, cannot resist the radiant scarlet blossoms on your Rose of China.
In addition to the nectar attracting visitors, ground-feeding birds may take cover in yours when they need to hide from predators.
However, one animal does not prefer the Syriacus: the whitetail deer. Deers seem to find flower' fragrances too floral so they will snack on them only as a last option.
