Double Red Hibiscus Tree
Hibiscus Tree Care
Scientific Name
Hibiscus rosa-sinensis
Light
Full Sun Please!
The double red hibiscus tree does best in temperatures from 60 to 90°F. Hibiscus plants cannot tolerate freezing temperatures. They do best with full sun to partial shade, but prefer 6-8 hours of direct sunlight.
While you may assume that a tropical plant like the hibiscus loves the sun, it’s more nuanced than that. In northern climates, your hibiscus plants will probably be happiest in full sun. However, if you live somewhere that’s more hot and dry, you’re better off putting your plant in a location that gets partial shade. If your outdoor plant is consistently producing hibiscus flowers, it is happy, so keep doing what you’re doing. If your plant is not producing buds and flowers, try moving it into an area that has more sunlight.

Double Red Hibiscus FAQ
How to Care for a Hibiscus Tree?
Caring for a hibiscus tree involves providing it with the right environmental conditions. Ensure it receives adequate sunlight, preferably full sun in northern climates or partial shade in hot and dry regions. Consistent watering, tailored to the plant’s hydration needs, is crucial. Monitor flower production as an indicator of its well-being, adjusting sunlight exposure accordingly. Fertilize during the growing season and protect the plant from frost in colder climates.
How Big Do Hibiscus Trees Get?
Hibiscus trees can reach varying sizes, typically ranging from 6 to 15 feet in height, depending on the specific variety and growing conditions. Regular pruning can help manage the size and shape of the tree. Prune hibiscus trees during the late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove dead or damaged branches and shape the tree as desired. Pruning encourages healthy growth and enhances flowering.
How to Prune a Hibiscus Tree?
Pruning a hibiscus tree involves strategic removal of branches to promote optimal growth and flowering. Use sharp, clean pruning shears to cut back dead or damaged branches. Additionally, shape the tree by selectively trimming branches to achieve the desired form. Pruning is best performed during late winter or early spring, allowing the tree to focus energy on new growth.

Came very well shipped and very healthy.
Well developed plant. Arrived very quickly. Always happy with this seller
Item arrived on time and in pretty good shape. We had a random cold snap here during the same time as shipment which resulted in a little shock but it seems to be recovering.
Fast shipping plant was really healthy
The hibiscus is so healthy and beautiful. Much bigger than expected! It also has many blooms.
