The evergreen flower will also lend a touch of drama to your surroundings, giving it a more meaningful appearance for a long period of time.

A common preference of evergreen flower lovers is the Hibiscus syriacus, which is more popularly known as the Rose of Sharon. It is a sturdy flower that has blooms of varying colors: red, lavender, white, and light blue. The Rose of Sharon is vase-shaped and can have double blooms. It is most alive during the hot summer months. However, it can come back to life after the winter freeze and can grow from 8 to 10 feet tall. This evergreen flower’s leaves are deeply lobed.

The Rose of Sharon can also be trimmed or sheared to create a neat hedge or privacy screen.

Other cultivars of the Rose of Sharon include Diana, Ardens, Lucy, Blushing Bride and Lady Stanley.
