General care
Plant height
With heavy pruning, the plant height is limited to 1 m. With little or no pruning, the plant grows to 3 m high.
Plant diameter
1 m. with heavy pruning, 2 m. if not pruned (solitary plant).
Location
Preferably full sun for profuse flowering.
Water requirement
Moderate. The Hibiscus plant is best not planted in wet soil. The plant tolerates drought better than wet.
Fertilization
Fertilizing or top-up fertilizing is not necessary. After heavy pruning, however, provide light maintenance fertilization.
Pruning
Light pruning (end of March) is sufficient, unless the height of the plant absolutely has to be limited.
