Rose of Sharon is more like a small tree. It is in the mallow family and produces lovely, colorful, hibiscus flowers throughout the summer. Pruning Rose of Sharon is like pruning any flowering tree. Limbing it to take out lower limbs will allow more light around the base of the shrub, giving it a tree characteristic. Otherwise, in the early spring or mid autumn, light prune back any dead wood or orer growth. Re-evaluate in the spring and prune as needed. Rose of Sharon is very hardy and will benefit from pruning.

Should you prune a climbing rose?

You can prune climbing roses to 'train' them to grow the way you want them to. If you want them to grow up a trellis, or over an arch, etc., then you need to prune them in the shape or direction in which you want them to grow. You also need to prune away dead parts to allow for new growth. And it will not harm the rose bush to prune it; the root system will continue to grow, which can produce an even more beautiful, healthier plant.
