💡 Care Tip: Keep your Hardy Hibiscus outdoors in full sun to partial sun and provide consistently moist soil during active growth. These plants can emerge late in spring, especially in colder climates, so do not assume the plant is dead if it remains dormant while other perennials are growing. Once growth begins, hardy hibiscus can grow rapidly when provided with adequate moisture and fertilizer. If your plant arrives dormant without foliage from mid-September through March, this is normal seasonal behavior. Protect the young plant from drying out and plant it outdoors when conditions are suitable.
