Heather your garden is breathtakingly beautiful. I have a Summerific Hibiscus &Limelight Hydrangeas &Vitex "Chaste" Shurbs Garden. I planted for pollinators . The hummingbirds& bees& butterflies frequent the plants daily from mid morning till dusk.
Oh hon your flowers are so lush, magical and so very beautiful. Your candy crushes are gorgeous. Ive got to get me one of them. You have so many beautiful hydrangeas and those candy crush hibiscus just put you over the top. Thank you for sharing this with us ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much! I love my hibiscus and my hydrangeas. I’ve been working so hard this spring on clean up. I just finished cutting back my hibiscus around my fire pit. I’m a looking forward and am so very excited to see my newer hibiscus and hydrangeas flourish this year. I also have some amazing new perennials that I planted last fall that are going to be beautiful. I look forward to sharing my garden with everyone. Thank you for watching my video.
Hi Heather, your garden is heaven. I don't have much luck with Summerific hibiscus. I have 8 in total. They're in their 2nd year. Only 2 grew to full size. 1 of my candy crush died, and 1 is only 15 cm tall. The rest is way smaller than their actual size.
Are they in full sun and getting enough water? The first year mine were much smaller. Give them another year. You can also use a Rose fertilizer on them and you can treat them for bugs if you see holes in their leaves. I wouldn’t give up on them yet! ❤️
You're hibiscus are gorgeous! Where I live, there is a huge problem with Japanese beetles , so I tried *everything, and what worked best for me was a systematic spray. I sprayed only ONCE FOR THE SUMMER.. Now.. I know a lot of people don't like to use the sprays, but I had ZERO issues with The Beatles, or any other bugs for that matter. I have Nice, healthy flowers, so it all depends on your own preference ,but i'd rather have my flowers Bloom beautifully than to be ravaged and Eaten up by beetles and Other pest
Hi Heather! You have such a beautiful garden! I was watching the Y Garden channel and it looks like saw fly might be eating your leaves. But I’m not sure. She said not to use neem oil! Just wanted to share that.
@@heathersmichigangardenhere is the video where she talks about it! ruclips.net/video/NbhDNeza2u8/видео.htmlsi=gozuFx7Rxo_Ab-Za At the 8:22 mark. I just planted my very first hibiscus; inspired by you! So I am by no means an expert but wanted to share what I had seen! Hope it helps!
Hi,I love your garden. Am thinking about putting hibiscus in my garden. It really helps to see just how big they get. Do you cut them back in the fall? Are these plants just growing natural? Can hibiscus be planted in part shade? About 5hrs Sun. Thanks for sharing.
I cut them back in the spring about 3-6 inches from the ground. They don’t come back up until June. One of the last to come up but they grow really fast. Yes they are growing natural, after that cut back this is their full growth for the summer. They are sun and water loving plants. My hibiscus in my front yard only gets a few hours of morning sun but still blooms. By noon, it’s in shade. I think 5 hours it will still bloom beautifully. You could experiment with one. I plant the Proven winners and there are many different colors. Experiment and enjoy!
I don’t do much. I put mulch down when I plant them. I don’t cut mine back until the spring. All of the new growth comes up from under the ground in early June and they grow really fast. So other than mulching, I don’t do anything. They must be very “hardy” hibiscus. I worry more about the ground moles damaging them under ground.
You can but the root ball gets pretty wide so it would have to be a pretty big container and they require quite a bit of water. If you are in a climate where it freezes, the type of container matters, so do your research on that. I hope this helps.
@@heathersmichigangarden okay 👌 i have a spot in the garden that somehow everything dies i planted a rosemary ,tomatoes twice small flowering shrub and even a rhododendron bush they all died so i figure try putting something in a container to fill it in any tips on any perennial that flowers 🌸 iam in zone 7 ?
My hibiscus are the hardy variety and planted in the ground. You would need a pretty big container. Also if the container is plastic, the roots would probably freeze. You need to make sure you buy a freeze free container. A thick container to protect the roots.
You need to purchase a frost free container. Make sure you have the hardy hibiscus. You would also need a pretty big container. Having said that, I’ve only planted mine in the ground.❤️
There are tropical hibiscus and Hardy Hibiscus. When you purchase a hibiscus, pay close attention to the hardiness zone on the tag. The Cajun Hibiscus, or Hibiscus™ Bienvenue Hibiscus, is hardy in zones 9-11 and can grow 2-4 ft tall and 3 ft wide. It does well in full to part sun and well-drained soil, and can be used in containers. This plant is known for its tropical presence You can look up what zone you are in. A zone 9 would not be hardy in Michigan zone 6 or below for sure.

So beautiful, Heather!! Do you fertilize them and if so, what do you feed them? They look amazing!!
I use a rose fertilizer.
@@heathersmichigangarden❤❤Thought that you use Hibiscus fertilizer.😊
Beautiful Flowers ❤

Yes, please tell us.
Beautiful garden! What is the brand name of the rose fertilizer? Thank you for the lovely tour. ❤🌿 🌸
BioAdvanced 3 in 1. I bought mine at Lowe’s.
Thank you also!
Beautiful Hibiscus 😊
Thank you! I can’t wait for them to bloom the end of July/first of August.

@rnguyen2516 thank you
Beautiful garden! May I ask, are your hibiscus on drip irrigation?
No. I don’t have any drip irrigation. 😀. Mother Nature and an occasional sprinkler, if it’s really dry, like last year.
My mailbox gets a lot of road salt in the winter. Would a Hibiscus make it??
I wish I could answer that but I really don’t know.

@@heathersmichigangarden thank you. Your flowers are beautiful.
I'm starting my first year with hibiscus 🌺
Beautiful garden… do the hibiscus repeat bloom?💕
They are covered in all of their blooms and they continue to open August - September. They are big and beautiful dinner plates size blooms.
Can we grow these in containers?
You can but the root ball gets pretty wide so it would have to be a pretty big container and they require quite a bit of water. If you are in a climate where it freezes, the type of container matters, so do your research on that. I hope this helps.

What do you do with a freeze? My 2 hibiscus died last year. They were in pots.
