Homeowner Growing Tips: Blooming is best with at least six hours of sun, but tolerates some shade. Grow in any moist but well-drained soil; somewhat drought tolerant once established. Apply 2-3" of bark mulch. In spring, when growth resumes, apply an all-purpose granular fertilizer; pruning, if desired, can also be done at that time, as these bloom on new wood. Hibiscus leafs out late, so be patient!
