Should I use a large or small pot for hibiscus?

For hibiscus, you should choose the flowerpot according to the size of the plant. For newly planted seedlings, you can choose a small flowerpot with a diameter of 3-4 inches. If the flowerpot is too large, it will easily accumulate water. You will need to replace the flowerpot as the plant grows.

Growing environment: Hibiscus is a strong sun-loving plant that prefers a warm and humid environment. The suitable temperature for the plant's growth is 15-20℃. The plant should be watered every day during the growing period.

Repotting time: It is best to repot the hibiscus plant every 1-2 years, in spring when the temperature is just right.

Should Hibiscus use a deep or shallow pot?

Hibiscus has a relatively developed root system, so it is recommended to use a deep pot for planting. The roots of the plant will penetrate deeply into the soil, and only a deep pot can meet the growth needs of the plant.

Hibiscus can be grown in pots made of various materials, such as ceramic pots, porcelain pots, purple clay pots, etc. The plant's flowers are brightly colored and can be paired with light-colored pots.
