Rose of Sharon - Freedom:

The Freedom Rose of Sharon, Hibiscus syriacus 'Freedom', is an old-fashion favorite in a newer, improved form! This outstanding variety produces huge, luminous red double blooms from summer to fall. 'Freedom' has lustrous dark green leaves that remain attractive all season. This is a hardy, easy-care plant that provides up to four months of continuous eye-catching color! In early spring cut most branches back by about 1/3 or even more, always leaving at least 2 to 3 nodes on each branch. The new growth that emerges will be strong and will blend in with the rest of the plant. 'Freedom' makes a wonderful flowering hedge or screen and thrives in heat, humidity, drought and even poor soils. It will tolerate light shade, but will not flower as well.

"A team grew fruit, vegetables and reared cattle on adjacent organic and non-organic sites across Europe. They found up to 40% more antioxidants could be found in organic fruit and vegetables than in non-organic.

The team said the findings call into question the current stance of the Food Standards Agency (FSA), which is neither for nor against organic food."
