Hibiscus
rosa-sinensis commonly known as China rose, Rose mallow and Shoelackplant is a
species of tropical hibiscus, a flowering plant in the family Malvaceae. It is
widely cultivated as ornamental plant in tropical and sub-tropical regions.
I share my
experiences how you can bloom more in your Hibiscus plants easily:
1. SOIL:-
a) If you
want to grow Hibiscus in garden container use sandy loam soil tend to be best.
b) I found best result in the potting mix like
60% loamy soil + 30% coco-peat + 10% other organic matter.
c) Use SOIL
MIX that is moist but well drained. It can be possible by using above mention
potting mix.
d) Hibiscus
does not grow well in wet water and water logging conditions.
2. FERTILIZER:-
a) Hibiscus plant needs NPK (12:4: 8)
and (7:1:12).
b) USE NPK
12:4:8 after establishment of plants in your pot. During blooming time use NPK
7:1:12.
c) Use ½
tablespoon NPK once in a month. Dose depends on size of plants. Dose increases
as per size of plants.
d) You may
purchase HIBISGAIN OR BLOOMSTIX from online shop.
e) Use EPSOM
SALT when you notice that buds are becoming small in size and leaves are going
yellow in colour. Epsom salt contains magnesium and sulphur elements which help
plants to absorb nitrogen and phosphorus and induces chlorophyll production.
f) Epsom
salt promotes bruisers and better bloom. Make a solution 5gm/lit and better to
use every two weeks interval.
3) SUNLIGHT AND WATER:-
a) Hibiscus
requires lots of sunlight.
b) At least
6-8 hours sunlight require for optimal prime growth and blooming.
c) Keep in
mind that Hibiscus requires adequate water, warm temperature and lots of light.
4) PRUNING :-
a) Pruning
your Hibiscus during spring or you may do it lightly in late summer.
b) Spring is
the best time for complete cutting back
c) pruning
helps to stimulate .budding on new growth.
d) Pruning
helps in attractive appearance, vigorous growth and healthy in looking.
