Most often, the so-called Chinese rose is bred at home. This type of hibiscus grows very quickly and does not require complex care, and blooms for almost six months.
Chinese hibiscus, or Chinese rose, was brought to Europe in the late 17th century from East Asia. Today, this ornamental shrub can often be found in homes and offices, since it does not require complex maintenance and pleases with lush flowering.
To breed hibiscus, it is enough to ask friends to cut off a branch of the plant. A branch with two to five leaves, placed in a glass of water, will quickly give roots and can be planted in a goshok with earth. No special soil is required for hibiscus, it grows quickly in ordinary garden soil, which is sold in any specialty store. Hibiscus can also be bred from seeds.
Hibiscus can be recommended for breeding even for those with windows facing north, because it does not require bright lighting, preferring diffused light. Direct sunlight is best shaded.
During warmer months, hibiscus can be displayed on the balcony or in the garden.
When your hibiscus grows up, you should pinch it so that it doesn't stretch too much. The overgrown hibiscus should be transplanted (in early spring) into a larger pot. With timely pinching and replanting, you will grow a large bush that will bloom with lush flowers.
Important! Watering the hibiscus should be abundant enough, not allowing the soil to dry out (however, you should not pour too much water so that the soil does not look like a swamp). Pruning should also be carried out in a timely manner, since hibiscus in a large pot can grow into a fairly large home tree.
