Why do leaves go yellow on Hibiscus? Soil Mix, Watering, Nutrients, Sunshine, Pests and Wind all play important factors in your plants health and success! Proper balance is needed for your hibiscus plants to survive the hot sunny heat, cold fall days, and windy storms that pass through the garden. Keep a close eye over your soil and plants, to ensure there are no pests/ webs and that the soil is kept most but not constantly wet. With at least 6 hours of sun, making sure the soil is kept moist and hotter days and even reducing the sun exposure if possible. Enjoy your hibiscus, they have beautiful flowers and are a great tropical plant suitable for full sun.

Good video! thanx for sharing!..:-)

What kind of fertilizer do you use on your hibiscus, please?

I love hibiscus flowers, but I always have a problem with half green, half yellow leaves and I never knew why, this was a huge help. And might I add, your voice is like.... warm butter :)

where do you get your hibiscus?

Hey when are you going to make more videos? Your videos are great!

Thanks CK, I planted them for family members, but once I saw the butterflies and Hummingbirds that these flowers attract, I have started growing as many as I can.. I have a seed saving video coming out soon...Stay Tuned! Thanks for the comment!

Hi JJ - I have never grown hibiscus, they are lovely tropical flowers - yours are beautiful. Sound like it all has to be very well balanced. Looks like you have it down!

Thanks for the comment NWI, I am also more on the veggie side, however I have started to perceive the value and beauty of flowers and flowering plants. I have taken some cutting,s which seem to do very well compared to others, almost as good as tomatoes in some cases believe it or not. I have saved some seeds, and hope to grow some soon. Maybe a great video idea! Thank you for the comment!

Great looking plant you have.I do want to plant some Hibiscus seed this fall. An old florist told me that's the best way to do it. I will find out if he is right. How do you start your seed? I am more of a veggie guy. Don't have any experience with flowers.
