Under normal circumstances, the Hibiscus plant will need at least six hours of sunlight for the flowers to bloom. In warm weather or during blooming season, Hibiscus need consistent watering. In warm weather, it will need watering daily, whilst in colder weather, it will need watering only when the soil feels dry after touching. Be careful, however, as too much water can kill the plant. To provide extra nutrients, one may add some plant food along with watering ideally once every two weeks during Spring and Summer. The above shows how easy it is to care for a Hibiscus plant. Adding this plant to your garden can add a nice touch of colour that every gardener will be proud to enjoy.
