Flowering Shrubs
I love flowering shrubs, especially my rose mallow hibiscus. They self-seed around the yard and have a deep, strong tap root, so if you don't want one to grow permanently where it sprouts up, pull it right away. I love to have flowers in the heat of summer and this shrub provides and abundance of them from mid-July through August. We had a huge thunder storm last night. The Browns (football) game was delayed because of the lightening. I sat on my front porch to watch it for a while until the wind kicked up and blew rain everywhere. The yard and garden really needed the rain.
