about 1 month ago, I got an Hibiscus plant which was nice and full. now it seems to be losing its leaves.
Since it's summer, I leave it outside on my balcony all the time, which gets sun in the late afternoon.
What's wrong?
Need help with hibiscus plant?
Sounds like it isn't getting enough water. In the summer when it is hot, containers dry out VERY quickly. They need to be watered usually at least once per day, very well, sometimes twice. yellow leaves usually means it isn't being watered enough. On the other hand, if the pot it is in has no drainage holes to let out too MUCH water, it could be overwatered as well. It depends on the drainage in the pot. If you have little to no drainage, it must be overwatered. If you have frequently dry soil, it is underwatered.
Reply:Your hibiscus is not getting enough sun. This is a plant that is native to Hawaii!! It needs FULL sun (eight or more hours per day).
Most hibiscus require excellent drainage. Make sure that your pot drains well. You may want to remove the saucer!!
Good Luck!!!
