How to Care for Red Hibiscus
Before you buy a Pink Tropical Hibiscus Standard Tree, make sure to read about the recommended care instructions to keep this plant healthy and thriving.
How should I be fertilizing my Tropical Hibiscus Tree?
Any all purpose, foliage fertilizer will work forTropical Hibiscus Tree. Patio plant fertilizers fall into two groups: water soluble, liquid quick release, and granular, slow release fertilizers. Jack’s Classic Indoor plant food works well as a powder, quick release fertilizer that is mixed with water to quickly provide nutrients to a plant that has been in a container for an extended time. On the other hand, Biotone Starter or Osmocote Indoor/Outdoor is an option as a granular, slow release fertilizer that can be applied while potting and planting. Any type of fertilizer offers nutrients that help plants with the transition to a new environment. All of these fertilizers may be used when planting Hibiscus indoors or outdoors. Keep in mind that weeping figs like to be fertilized regularly to encourage new growth and branching.
What is the best soil to use for Tropical Hibiscus Tree?
Tropical Hibiscus Trees need very well draining soil, and prefer to have moist conditions. Regular potting mix works well for plants potted in containers, some sand can be added to the potting mix to prevent the tree from staying too wet. Try to avoid an area with clay soil if planting outdoors to encourage better drainage.
How much light is recommended for a Hibiscus rosa-sinensis?
These tropical plants love to bask in the sun, so it is best to give them at least 6 house of direct sun every plant. They can tolerate some shade but remember that less sun will ultimately mean less blooms.
How often should I water a Tropical Hibiscus House Plant?
The Tropical Hibiscus does not like to dry out to give it water as soon as the top of the soil is dry to the touch. This can mean that you are watering your plant twice a week, and even once a day if it is placed outside in the summer heat.
