Hibiscus (Red Doubled Layered)
Bring a show-stopping tropical vibe to your garden with the Red Double Layered Hibiscus! Featuring large, heavily ruffled, multi-petaled red blooms and lush green foliage, this stunning plant is perfect as a centerpiece in large patio pots or garden beds.
Planting & Daily Care:
Sunlight: Full, direct sun (needs at least 6–8 hours daily for maximum blooming).
Soil & Planting: Dig a hole twice the root ball's width. Plant in a rich, well-draining mix of garden soil, compost/manure, and sand. Press soil gently and water thoroughly.
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but never soggy. Ensure your pot or garden bed has excellent drainage to prevent root rot.
Feeding: Apply a potassium-rich organic fertilizer, bone meal, or vermicompost once a month to fuel its large blooms.
Maximizing Blooms & Maintenance:
How to Get More Flowers: Maximum sunlight and strict monthly feeding are the biggest secrets. Always snap off old, faded flowers (deadheading) so the plant puts its energy into making new buds instead of seed pods.
Pruning: Prune in early spring (February–March) by cutting back leggy branches by about one-third. This encourages a bushier shape and heavily multiplies the blooming tips.
Pest Control: Hibiscus can attract mealybugs and aphids. Spray the foliage with an organic Neem Oil solution every 15–20 days to keep it perfectly healthy.
What You Receive: 1 healthy, ready-to-plant Red Double Layered Hibiscus plant.
