Hibiscus syriacus ‘Notwoodone’ Lavender Chiffon®

Family: Malvaceae · Pot: 19 cm · Height: 55 cm

True chiffon texture
A late-summer stage
Tall clean silhouette
Late-summer bloom

Hibiscus syriacus ‘Notwoodone’ Lavender Chiffon® brings a calm lavender tone to the summer garden, revealing more detail at close range. Deeper veins guide the eye towards the petaloid centre while airy inner folds move like fine fabric. The vertical dark-green crown provides a clean ground, turning its generous late flowering into a refined colour event.

As a vertical accent in a sunny border, flowering hedge or large container, it supplies height without dense evergreen weight. Late bloom links summer with autumn and creates a second peak among ornamental grasses and long-season perennials.

RHS Award of Garden Merit — a current official distinction for ‘Notwoodone’ LAVENDER CHIFFON®.

What makes it distinctive

Three distinct details explain the horticultural value of Lavender Chiffon®.

True chiffon texture

Petaloid stamens fill the centre without hiding the flower’s elegant funnel.

A late-summer stage

New growth continues setting buds after many spring shrubs have finished.

Tall clean silhouette

Its vase-shaped crown supplies vertical structure while leaving room for lower planting at the base.

Why you will love it: Lavender petals and deeper veins turn every flower into a subtle colour drawing that changes with the light.

In the garden & on the balconyPlacement & plant pairingsPosition, mature scale and companion planting tailored to this cultivar.

Planting position

Best position

Use in a warm sunny border with airy perennials and grasses, where the lavender veining reads against a clear background and the vertical crown supplies a late-season rhythm.

Colour & compatibility

Compatible planting

Panicum virgatum ‘Shenandoah’, Gaura lindheimeri ‘Whirling Butterflies’ and Echinacea ‘White Swan’ enjoy sun and drainage; burgundy tips and two white textures clarify the lavender colour.

Panicum virgatum ‘Shenandoah’ — adds linear texture and movement without hiding the main plant's natural mature outline.
Gaura lindheimeri ‘Whirling Butterflies’ — complements the composition with a different texture and compatible site and soil-moisture needs.
Echinacea ‘White Swan’ — extends flower interest with a different texture and compatible light, position and soil moisture.

Care at a glance

Light

Full sun for dense growth and plentiful buds; morning sun is useful in extreme heat.

Water

Provide moderate but deep water once established. Avoid both chronic drought and heavy saturated soil.

Climate & hardiness

Hardy to roughly −20 °C or below depending on site and clone; late spring emergence is entirely normal.

Safety

An ornamental cultivar, not intended for consumption.

Detailed careComplete care guideLight, watering, soil, feeding, pruning and winter management.

Light

Full sun for dense growth and plentiful buds; morning sun is useful in extreme heat.

Water

Provide moderate but deep water once established. Avoid both chronic drought and heavy saturated soil.

Soil & drainage

Fertile, well-drained soil from slightly acid to alkaline. A warm sheltered site ripens the wood more effectively.

Feeding

Apply compost and a balanced feed as new growth starts; avoid excess nitrogen that produces length rather than flowers.

Pruning

It flowers on new growth. In late winter thin weak stems and shorten the framework to improve branching.

Winter

It loses its leaves and remains woody. Do not assume the bare plant is dead before its characteristically late spring growth.

Development over timeFrom young plant to mature presenceEstablishment, branching, flowering and the real volume this plant will occupy in a garden.

Initial establishment

The first season builds roots and a woody base even when spring emergence appears slow. Current-season shoots will carry the late flowers, so there is no reason to remove them prematurely.

Building the crown

The crown builds long upright shoots and later distributes lavender corollas at several levels without losing its airy line.

Mature expression

At full maturity the crown reaches about 2.4–3.7 m in height and 1.8–3 m in spread. Final planting distance must follow that scale rather than the plant’s current young volume.

Summer–autumnThe leafy upright branch framework carries its characteristic flowers on new growth.

Winter dormancyAfter leaf fall, the shrub's bare upright woody framework remains.

The seasonal cycle of Hibiscus syriacus ‘Notwoodone’ LAVENDER CHIFFON® is a deciduous hardy woody shrub; its bare winter form is natural.

History & originCultivar originA true member of Dr Roderick Woods’ Chiffon Series: flower-structure breeding, not simply a new colour.

‘Notwoodone’ emerged from Dr Roderick Woods’ seedling-selection programme at Great Shelford. Like the early white member of the series, it arose through open pollination within a large, incompletely identified H. syriacus collection, where evaluation focused on flower structure and a refined lavender tone.

The selected clone had been propagated from cuttings at Woodbridge since 1988, consistently reproducing large lilac-pink flowers, deeper central veins and petaloid stamens. It was protected as ‘Notwoodone’ under USPP12619.

Named LAVENDER CHIFFON®, it became a foundational member of the Chiffon Series and Proven Winners. The RHS retains an Award of Garden Merit for the exact ‘Notwoodone’, contemporary confirmation that Woods’ refined historic selection combines subtle colour with dependable garden performance.

Greenleaf for Plant NerdsScientific details nobody asked forMechanisms, anatomy and chemistry explaining how the plant actually behaves.

Inner folds from transformed stamens

The lavender inner petals of ‘Notwoodone’ are staminodes whose organogenesis shifted towards petaloid development. Because the change is partial, the centre retains visible structure and the folds resemble light fabric rather than a fully double rosette.

Veins as a pigment map

Deeper lines follow vascular bundles and local differences in anthocyanin accumulation. Petal transport anatomy becomes a visible graphic pattern leading the eye toward the centre.

Frequently asked questions

Six exact answers about placement, watering, pruning and seasonal behaviour for Lavender Chiffon®.

01Can Lavender Chiffon® remain in a pot long term?

It can grow in a very large pot, but a mature scale of 2.4–3.7 m × 1.8–3 m makes open ground the better long-term choice. In a pot, monitor moisture and root space more frequently.

02Which position shows Lavender Chiffon® at its best?

Full sun for dense growth and plentiful buds; morning sun is useful in extreme heat. Keep an open visual field around its mature 1.8–3 m spread so the cultivar’s particular crown remains clearly legible.

03When should Lavender Chiffon® be watered again?

Provide moderate but deep water once established. Avoid both chronic drought and heavy saturated soil.

04How should Lavender Chiffon® be pruned?

Lavender Chiffon® flowers on current-season shoots. Wait for buds to swell in late winter or early spring, then remove dead, weak or crossing wood.

05Why are the veins darker?

Vascular zones and adjacent tissues accumulate different amounts of anthocyanin. Petal transport anatomy therefore becomes a visible pattern.

06What will Lavender Chiffon® look like in winter?

Lavender Chiffon® is deciduous and remains outdoors. A bare crown is normal and spring emergence is late; assess stem life when buds begin to swell.
