FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT
- Hibiscus plants need a fertilizer with a medium to a high amount of nitrogen (N), a low amount of phosphorous or phosphate (P), and a high amount of potash (K) – such as 7-1-2 or 12-4-8.
- Phosphorous accumulates in hibiscus plants and binds to other minerals, which can cause toxic reactions that may kill the plants.
LIGHT REQUIREMENT
- The more direct sun they get, the better they'll bloom.
- At least 6 to 8 hours is optimal for prime flowering, but you can grow them in a little more shade.
WATER REQUIREMENT
- When hibiscus is in their blooming stage, they require large amounts of water.
- Your hibiscus will need daily watering in warm weather.
