Description
The listing, Red Double Hibiscus has ended.
This auction is for 1 rooted cutting off of my Red Double hibiscus plant. Hibiscus is a very hardy, versatile plant and in tropical conditions it can enhance the beauty of any garden. Being versatile it adapts itself easily to balcony gardens in crammed urban spaces and can be easily grown in pots as a creeper or even in hanging pots. It is a perennial and flowers through the year. As it comes in a variety of colors, its a plant which can add vibrancy to any garden. The only infestation that gardeners need to be vigilant about is mealybug. Mealybug infestations are easy to spot as its clearly visible as a distinct white cottony infestation on buds, leaves or even stems. To protect the plant you need to trim away the infected part, spray with water and then spray with a good insecticide recommended by a plant nursery.
Questions & Comments
Hi, Is this plant tropical? I live in zone 4. Will it survive here? Thanks!
Temperature: Even a few nights below 50ºF will kill a hibiscus. Move them inside when the temperature is consistently 55ºF.They prefer between 55ºF and 70ºF.
Our own experiments have shown that 2 hours per day of direct sunlight is enough to stimulate blooming, even indoors through a window! However, if the hibiscus receive insufficient sunlight you will end up with pretty green bushes without blooms
