United Nursery Live Hibiscus Braided Red Plant 42-48 inches Tall in 9.25-inch Grower Pot

Grown by United Nursery, the Hibiscus plant is a tropical beauty that will bring an exotic flair to your garden. They are durable plants that can grow to be up to 15 ft. in height, and the colorful blooms will attract hummingbirds and butterflies to your garden. Since hibiscus plants are tropical, they need a certain amount of care to ensure that they thrive. Provide the plants with at least 6 hours of sunlight, especially if you want to see those lovely blooms. Although warm, humid conditions are ideal for tropical hibiscus, you may want to provide a little afternoon shade when it's overly hot. Again, containers make this easy to do. While the hibiscus plant needs a lot of sun, it's very important that you shelter it away from the wind. The stems are more susceptible to breakage if you get the taller varieties of hibiscus, so place them in an area where wind is not going to be much of a factor. If you are having trouble blooming the hibiscus, it's wise to remove as many deadheads as possible to encourage the growth.
