Rose of Sharon

 

Recently, we had hail the size of golf balls and larger.  Some were reported up to 2 inches in diameter.  Luckily, before that, I took these photos.

One day I noticed my Rose of Sharon were blooming.

I'm glad I took a few photos because the hail did a number to all my plants, herbs, tree leaves, and branches.

I wish you a pleasant weekend.  Thanks for dropping by.

So pretty. I had just planted a small one given to me then we had a heavy rainfall and all the leaves fell off!

Hail is so damaging. I'm glad your Rose of Sharon is still good.

I don't believe we have roses like that in my area.
