Hibiscus is a genus of flowering plants in the mallow family, Malvaceae. The genus is quite large, comprising several hundred species that are native to warm temperate, subtropical and tropical regions throughout the worldContainer hibiscus should be watered daily, whereas garden hibiscus needs to be watered about every other day. If you're overwintering your hibiscus indoors, always wait for the soil to dry out before watering again. As for sunlight, hibiscus plants like lots and lots!Tropical hibiscus plants should be kept consistently moist, so water whenever the top inch of soil is dry. (Stick your finger in the soil to check.) Containers may need to be watered 3 to 4 times weekly at the beginning of the summer and daily toward the end of the summer as the plants grow.
