No. Freedom has sterile seeds but will produce seeds if it is crossed with another variety of rose of sharon that does not have sterile seeds. The seeds that freedom will produce when crossed with different variety will have different blooms because it will have the genetics of both the freedom rose of sharon and whatever it is crossed with. The only way you can get another freedom rose of sharon is by rooting cuttings.Hope this helps! Let me know if you need further help.

thanks mike. that's really interesting and I have one potted up to see what I get. I do root cuttings each year, this is the first time I have had volunteers from this particular rose of sharon. Speaking of rooting, would you happen to know what success I might have rooting Hibiscus Fireball in water? It is a rose mallow and so far they are hanging in there on the window sill but no roots yet. A few leaves died but alot still going. Would this "fireball" rose mallow cross with the ROS Freedom?
