Ok, Rose of Sharon bushes (AKA Hibiscus) are really awful. They grow and spread like weeds. We had two in our backyard, thought they looked very nice when flowering...fast forward to a year, and they're all over the place, getting into everything. I admit, they're pretty flowers, but, man, give me Gabriels' Trumpets any day.

EDIT: ok, I can't find confirmation for 'Gabriel's trumpet' bushes. That's what we called them in DC, either that or 'Gideon's trumpets' - they've got a bunch of long, white, tulip like flowers with thin stems...nevermind. must be a colloquial name. But they're nice.
