hibiscus yellow wave

Also known as: Chinese Hibiscus, Tropical Hibiscus, China Rose

Hibiscus Yellow Wave is a bright tropical flowering plant known for its large, ruffled blooms in vivid sunshine yellow. Native to tropical Asia, its cheerful flowers stand out beautifully against lush deep green foliage and bring fresh color to sunny outdoor spaces. Although each flower is short lived, new buds continue opening throughout the warm season for a steady display of blooms. Hibiscus Yellow Wave grows best in full sun and warm temperatures and is a beautiful choice for patios, garden beds, tropical landscapes, and outdoor containers. Its nectar rich flowers also attract butterflies and hummingbirds.

care

In zones 8 and below, plant hibiscus in a container.The container should have good drainage. Bring them inside the home for the colder months of the year. When overwintering your hibiscus, make sure it is in a bright, sunny location and water as needed. Plant in organically rich, well-draining soil in a sunny spot protected from strong winds. Cut back by about half in early spring to maintain a nice shape and encourage new growth. Fertilize every two weeks during spring and summer with a liquid fertilizer, or use a slow-release formula following label instructions.
