Producer: Priyanka Das
Hibiscus thrives in full sunlight, so ensure they get at least 6 hours of direct sun daily.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the growing season.
Well-Draining Soil:
Use well-draining, slightly acidic soil to prevent waterlogged roots.
Pruning Prowess:
Prune to shape and encourage new growth, especially in the spring.
Fertilize Wisely:
Feed with a balanced fertilizer regularly during the growing season.
Watch for Pests:
Keep an eye out for pests like aphids and spider mites; treat promptly if spotted.
Winter Warmth:
Protect from frost by bringing potted hibiscus indoors or providing insulation.
Disease Defense:
Prevent fungal issues by avoiding overhead watering and ensuring proper air circulation.
