Any chance my hibiscus can survive the winter indoors?
It has been such a trooper. Flowers from mid-May until now. Perhaps it isn't worth the hassle. It was our first one. Thanks in advance. Paul Milwaukee |

Do you have a room with a southern exposure, and a lot of windows? That would be a good location. It won't need near the water that it has, and if you /really/ feel you need to feed it, use half-strength. It'll be messy, though. Most leaves will probably drop, and then there's the whiteflies...

Put it in a cool, well-lit area and water when dry. You will have leaf yellowing and drop and may have pest problems to control, but it will (should) live to see next summer. Cheryl |
