Preparation: Choose a location with full sun to partial shade, ideally with well-drained, loamy soil rich in organic matter.

Sowing: Plant the seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost, or sow directly outdoors after the last frost date. If sowing indoors, use seed trays or small pots with a good seed-starting mix.
-
Depth: Plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep in the soil.
-
Watering: Keep the soil moist but not soggy during germination. Water regularly after planting, ensuring the soil remains slightly moist throughout the growing season.
-
Germination: Hibiscus seeds typically germinate in 7-14 days, depending on environmental conditions.
-
Transplanting: Once seedlings have established and the outdoor temperature has warmed up, harden off the plants by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions. Transplant them into the garden or larger containers.
-
Care: Regular watering is essential during dry periods. Deadheading the spent flowers will encourage more blooms, and providing support for tall plants can help them thrive.
Additional Tips:

Hibiscus plants thrive in temperatures ranging from 70-85°F (21-29°C).

Fertilize regularly with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer during the growing season for optimal blooming.

Mulch around the base to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
