love it! voted! we lost our rose of sharon two winters ago.. minus 30 degrees and little snow cover... it is marginal in maine here... but rather than avoiding it, i will now after seeing your wonderful image buy a new one and enjoy seeing it and watching how each winter unfolds... maybe it will last but this summer, maybe forever in my life... it will make the summers and winters both more fascination to watch unfold! in some way i feel like my life has been that of a rose of sharon trying to bloom and survive in the glorious but brutal winters of maine... today, for me, sobriety/recovery helps!
