Pruning Rose of Sharon?
Thanks, Sugar! :-)

Here in PA, the forsythia are in full bloom, the daffodils are just
starting, the lilacs are starting to show green, but the RoS are still
dormant. I would expect things to be a bit further along in Virginia, but
it's been a rough winter and a wacky spring, so it's hard to say.....If
you're worried, you can scrape a bit of bark off of a twig with your
fingernail. If it shows green underneath, it's fine. RoS are tough
plants,
so I wouldn't be too concerned.
Cheers,

Great! Thanks for the info. Should the plant have started to leaf out
yet?
What I have as of now looks like a bunch of bumpy sticks, unlike my
other
bushes which have started to show green.
