Orchid Satin® Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus) boasts massive satellite dish flowers that pollinators find irresistible. Bright pink petals featuring vivid red eyes surround a prominent staminal column. As pollinators reach into the center of the flower for nectar, they brush against the column and are coated in a heavy layer of pollen! Pollinators clearly don't mind, as you'll see them coming back for more and more.
