Planting Instructions:

  • - Best planted in spring or early summer for optimal root development
  • - Space plants 3-4 feet apart to allow for mature growth and proper air circulation

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 6.0-7.5
  • - Prefers moist, well-drained soil; thrives in rich, organic soil but tolerates average conditions

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water deeply and regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist
  • - Mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and maintain even soil temperature

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to encourage vigorous growth and flowering
  • - Feed again in mid-summer to support continuous blooming

Pruning and Training:

  • - Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or damaged stems
  • - Cut back to the ground in late fall after the plant has gone dormant to encourage fresh growth next spring

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Hardy Hibiscus is generally pest-resistant but may attract aphids or Japanese beetles; monitor and treat if necessary
  • - Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Blooms from mid-summer to early fall with large, showy flowers in shades of red, pink, white, or purple

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Hardy in USDA zones 4-9, tolerates both heat and cold, but may need protection in colder regions

Companion Plants for Hardy Hibiscus:

  • - Echinacea: Complements Hibiscus with its bright, daisy-like blooms
  • - Achillea: Pairs beautifully with Hibiscus’ large flowers for a striking contrast
  • - Rudbeckia: Adds bright yellow blooms that enhance the bold colors of Hibiscus
  • - Lavender: Provides a fragrant, low-growing companion that complements Hibiscus blooms

Top 10. Very happy with it. Beautiful live plant. I like the fact that it comes in a small container with soil. Thank you.
