Can I safely move two four years old hibiscus plants to a sunnier part of the garden?

cut them off 6 inches above ground, move them to new area. no problem do it all in one day so roots dont dry.

hibiscus are extreemly hardy


I doubt you will have any issues


check out Kimberly C's site for a general guide %26amp; once they're in stay on top of watering for at least the first year
Reply:Sure you can. Start digging at the drip line, have the new location hole prepared in advance. Water with Root Stimulator (Fertilome makes a product I've used with success on all transplants.) Hibiscus cuttings will root in water. have fun
Reply:Hi:


I usually recommend to my clients to be careful about transplanting established shrubs after three to five years. Depending on your climate location, transplant in the fall or spring time. I think you will be fine to transplant your Hibiscus to a sunnier location if you properly take the steps to transplant each shrub. Hibiscus are beautiful ornamental plants. You shouldn't transplant them if they are in bloom. Always wait until the flowers are all gone.





I will link you to the landscape article section of my website. There is an article on properly transplanting shrubs and will also show you photos of how to do it. I will also link you to the site map as this page has everything that is on the website. There are many articles as well as photos and descriptions of different landscape solutions as well as plant specimens. There is also a tropics section that has a page on Hibiscus. I hope this helps some and if you need any further suggestions, please feel free to contact me at the website. Have a great day!
