Hibiscus 'Full Moon'

How to grow Hibiscus 'Full Moon' in NZ

Hibiscus 'Full Moon' grows best in full sun with well drained soil and shelter from strong winds. It performs well in most regions of New Zealand and tolerates light frosts once established. Improve the soil with compost before planting to encourage strong root development. Water regularly during the first growing season, then during extended dry periods only. A sunny position will ensure abundant flowering and healthy growth.

Hibiscus 'Full Moon' care tips

Hibiscus 'Full Moon' benefits from feeding in early spring and again in summer with a fertiliser suited to flowering shrubs. This promotes vigorous growth and plentiful blooms. Prune in late winter or early spring to shape the shrub and encourage fresh flowering wood. Remove weak or damaged stems to maintain structure and airflow. Provide deep watering during prolonged dry spells to support continued performance.
