Planting & Care
1. Planting: Choose a location that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight with well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide and as deep as the root ball. Place the plant in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface. Backfill with soil, tamp down gently, and water thoroughly.
2. Watering: Water deeply immediately after planting. Keep the soil consistently moist for the first few weeks to help the plant establish roots. Once established, water only during dry spells, as the Blue Chiffon® Hibiscus is drought-tolerant.
3. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to promote growth and blooms. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to fewer flowers. A layer of compost around the base can also enhance soil health.
4. Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth appears. Remove dead or damaged wood and shape the plant as needed. Minimal pruning is required, as this shrub naturally maintains a neat, rounded form.
