My husband thought it was dead and pulled it out and threw it in garbage. I saw and said it isn't dead. He took the stick, broke it in half and stuck it in the ground laughing. Well, we have a beautiful plant that grows every year. So remember, it is a late bloomer.

Excellent video. I bought seeds from True Leaf Last year and gave about 60 away to friends and have about 70 growing this year in pots to give to friends this year. They were amazing even from seed last year growing fast and producing loads of flowers even though very small plants. My sisters that she has had a few years are about 6 feet tall in the summer.

Most varieties grow up to a zone 9 but many resource state they can grow up to a zone 10. I would suggest to check with your local garden centers if they can suggest a variety that does well in your area. Happy gardening!

Have had great bloomings this year. Kept up with the count and believe I have had 86 blooms in all. Started blooming around June 12th but looks like it may be over. Only one bloom today. Most I have had in one day was nine. Today is only July 4th. Do you think it's through blooming? I live in East Texas. I love this plant!!!

I just found a pink hibiscus growing wild by the river my house is on. I only noticed bc I saw bright pink as I walked by on the road so I walked down to see what it was (bc I enjoy transposing wild flowers/shrubs to plant in my yard) and managed to get JUST enough root with it that once it died back briefly it immediately started pushing out more green. How come there was just one random little hibiscus growing all by itself? There aren’t any similar ones nearby at all - I checked lol

I guess they are doomed to flatten with a heavy rain, but will they rebound at all? I have had my white swamp rose mallow for at least 15 years now, right next to my pond. It is huge, 6' x 6'. I dont think i can put a big enough support around it. Any suggestions?

A layer of compost or an application of a general, all-purpose fertilizer in the spring would create a healthy plant. Do not over fertilize.
@pattiburns6670 Жыл бұрын
Should spent blooms be removed? And just to confirm- cut back in the spring? The nursery I bought mine at said to cut back in the fall and protect with straw/mulch. I am in zone 3 (northwest WI). 🤞 that it survives our winters. TIA.
@Gardeningknowhow Жыл бұрын
Spent blooms can be removed but the plant actually takes care of that for you! They will droop and then fall off on their own. I prefer to leave the stalks over the winter months as the plant sends up new growth so late in the spring that it is a good reminder where the plant is located. Most rose mallow are hardy to zone 4 so a layer of protection was good advice. You could either cut the plant back as suggested or leave the stalks to remain through winter. Do not apply the mulch or straw until the late in the fall when the plant has begun to go dormant.

They are heavy water users. You may want to consider putting the entire pot in a bucket of water and allow it to soak up as much moisture as it needs.

Hi I was wondering if you can divide the white dinner plate perennial hibiscus.i bought it in august of this year and it got really large and in the centre it actually looks like two plants .I want plant one in the garden and replant the other half in the pot .if it is possible..I live in Ontario Canada please reply .
@Gardeningknowhow Жыл бұрын
Yes, they can be divided in half in the spring. You will need a sharp spade as the left over tissue is very woody. I would not suggest to plant the other half in a container as the roots will freeze and you will lose that part of the plant.
