Plant Rosa rugosa during spring or early summer in a location that receives at least six hours of full sunlight throughout the day and consists of moist, fertile, well-drained soil. Spread a 2-inch layer of compost over the planting site and use a tiller to incorporate it into the soil before planting.
The climate is most favorable for growing rose of Sharon bushes in USDA plant hardiness zones 5-9. Rose of Sharon prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Older bushes may fall prey to fungal damage if you are growing them in areas without full sun.
