Hibiscus can be planted in spring or fall.
Garden hibiscus - planting and care
In cold climates, the flower can also be grown, but in this case, it is planted in a large pot. In summer he “lives” on the street, and in winter - at home.
If plants are left outside during the winter in harsh winter conditions, then shelter is necessary, similar to roses.
When planting in winter, it is necessary to mulch the trunk so that the root system has time to take root and does not freeze out under a layer of snow.
For better rooting, immerse the seedling in a solution for planting ornamental shrubs or a universal rooting gel.
How to water hibiscus
Hibiscus likes moist soil, so it is important to water it regularly.
You need to use water at room temperature, standing for at least a day.
If moisture evaporates in summer, evaporation can be reduced by spreading moss in the tree trunk circle.
The foliage needs to be sprayed and the air in the room humidified.
How often to water hibiscus in a pot
Warm, settled water is used for irrigation, and the procedure itself is carried out as the soil in the pot dries 20 mm.
Watering frequency: 2-3 times a week. In winter, watering is reduced if the hibiscus is in a cool room.
What doesn't hibiscus like
Hibiscus does not tolerate sudden changes in temperature; it loves southern windows, but will suffer from direct sunlight.
In summer, it is advisable to water the plant abundantly and expose it to fresh air.
