Kendra Klahanie Hibiscus Plant – 4″ POT – Indoors/Out

Thursday, March 18th, 2010

Klahanie varieties are quickly becoming known for their gorgeous blooms that last 2-3 days, a unique feature in a crop with a 24-hour bloom life span. Klahanie hibiscus are a vegetative, florist-quality hibiscus. They are own root hibiscus that produce huge flowers in a wide variety of colors. Many of the varieties have double or semi-double flowers.
Hibiscus are good performers, both in the garden and in bright areas inside the house. If they receive just a small amount of care they will reward you with many magical blooms throughout the year. Here, in short, is what they need:

1. Temperature: Most important, a WARM place where their tropical origins are respected. It is often said that hibiscus like much the same conditions as people and with temperature, that is pretty much true. For best results and lots of blooms, hibiscus should be located where the temperature remains between 60 and 90 degrees most of the time. Short periods of either hot or cold will not injure them though they may show their displeasure by shedding a few leaves or dropping some developing flower buds.

2. Watering. Watering is divided into two areas – cold weather watering and hot weather watering. In hot weather hibiscus will use lots of water and prefer a steady supply of it. Avoid flooding the roots or allowing the plant to stand in a saucer full of water for an extended time. Hibiscus will develop droopy leaves in hot weather if they do not have enough water. The cure is simple, provide some water and the leaves will regain their crispness.

In cold weather it is better to let the plant get too dry than to overwater it. This is one of the few things that will cause the early death of a hibiscus plant. If you can keep the roots warm you will have few problems with this.
