DESI RED HIBISCUS

Care Instructions

1. Sunlight

• Full Sun: Requires 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily for maximum flower production.

• Shade Tolerance: Can survive in partial shade, but blooming will drop significantly.

2. Soil & Potting

• Well-Draining Soil: Prefers rich, loamy, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0).

• Potting Mix: Combine garden soil, cow dung manure/compost, and coarse sand or coco peat in equal parts to ensure good drainage.

3. Watering

• Consistent Moisture: Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during hot summer days. Water thoroughly whenever the top inch of soil feels dry.

• Avoid Waterlogging: Root rot occurs easily if water stagnates. Reduce watering during rainy or winter months.
