How fast do Azaleas and Hibiscus bushes grow?

I got flowering bushes for Mom's day and I'm curious how fast they grow. We live in Northern IL. Both bushes are hardy to -30 degrees F.





Azalea, now about 2 1/2' tall will mature to 7' tall 5' wide.





Hibiscus, now 2' tall, will mature to 6' tall and 8' wide.


Will Hibiscus only bloom in spring?

How fast do Azaleas and Hibiscus bushes grow?
You will find that azaleas are slow to moderate slow growers in northern IL. Hardy Hibiscus or Rose of Sharon is a medium rate grower. It blooms in late July/early August into Sept. Rose Mallow or perennial, herbaceous Hibiscus also blooms July-Sept.
