Planting Tips:

Select a spot with good drainage and plenty of sun for optimal development and flowering. Dig a hole twice as wide as the plant's root ball and make sure the top of the root ball is even with the soil surface during planting. Place multiple Luna Pink Swirl Hibiscus plants about 2 to 3 feet apart to ensure adequate air flow and growth.

Watering:

  • Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the plant's active growth period.
  • Water deeply and thoroughly, ensuring the water reaches the plant's root zone.
  • Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal diseases, instead, use a soaker hose or drip irrigation system.
  • Use our Moisture Maxx non-ionic wetting agent in periods of drought. 

Mulching:

  • Apply a layer of organic mulch, such as bark chips or shredded leaves, around the base of the plant to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
  • Maintain a mulch layer approximately 2 to 3 inches thick, being careful not to pile mulch against the plant's stem, which can lead to rot.

Pruning:

  • Prune Luna Hibiscus Pink Swirl in late winter or early spring to remove dead or damaged branches and encourage new growth.
  • Use sharp, clean pruning shears to make clean cuts just above a leaf node or bud.
  • Shape the plant as desired to maintain its compact and tidy appearance, but avoid excessive pruning, which can reduce flowering.

Fertilizing Guidelines:

  • Feed Luna Hibiscus Pink Swirl with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer formulated for flowering shrubs in early spring, use what we use, SR-18-5-10 slow release fertilizer following our simple instructions.
  • Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive vegetative growth at the expense of flowering.
