Although its large blossoms resemble a rose, the Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus) isn't really a rose at all. The blossoms attract hummingbirds and tiny insects that hummers also eat. The flowers on this woody shrub come in several colors, including white, pink, purple, and red. Its leaves come out in late spring, causing neophyte gardeners to think the plant is perhaps dead.
