Rose of Sharon tree

Question

I planted a Rose of Sharon “tree” last year. It seemed to be doing good but it is now the first of July and only a small number of branches have begun sprouting buds. The other branches all are pliable and green under the bark but no buds yet. I had noticed the small tree moved could be tipped easily and think it didn’t take root properly. Is it too late to save it now?

Answer 1

If the plant has not rooted into the soil, this is not normal and you will need to access the planting and the soil conditions.
