What is this shrub and is it too close to the house? Can it cause foundation damage? Thanks in advance. James |

| Looks like Rose of Sharon to me. I don't think it'll damage the house, but it is kind of close to it. Someone else can answer that part for sure. |

| It is a rose of sharon, and it is a tad close to the house. You can cut it way back, shape it and keep it 'in bounds', so it will be a pretty little bush for you. It blooms on new growth, so it won't hurt to cut it. I would thin it out some too, but don't butcher it. Janie |

| Hibiscus syriacus or probably another Hibiscus species. Hibiscus plants are small to medium-sized shrubs. tropical |
