Pollination Info
Pollination Info for Blue Chiffon Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus 'Notwoodthree')
Blue Chiffon Rose of Sharon is a sterile cultivar, which means that it does not produce seeds and cannot self-pollinate. Therefore, it requires cross-pollination from another Hibiscus syriacus cultivar in order to produce viable seeds.
The flower of the Blue Chiffon Rose of Sharon is attractive to a wide range of pollinators, including bees, butterflies, moths, and hummingbirds. These pollinators are attracted to the flower's nectar and pollen, and will visit the flower repeatedly in search of these resources.
In order to ensure successful cross-pollination, it is recommended to plant at least two different cultivars of Hibiscus syriacus in close proximity to each other, such as within 100 feet. This will encourage pollinators to move between the flowers of the different cultivars, improving the chances of successful pollination and seed production.
In addition to attracting pollinators, Blue Chiffon Rose of Sharon can also serve as a host plant for the larvae of certain butterfly species, such as the gray hairstreak and the holly blue. These butterfly larvae feed on the leaves of the plant, but typically do not cause significant damage.
