Expert Tip: Use Tea Leaves for Lush, Year-Round Hibiscus Blooms
- •Hibiscus plants often wilt, yellow, or drop buds in winter; proper care and home remedies can revive them.
- •Used tea leaves act as a free organic fertilizer, providing NPK and acidifying the soil, promoting growth and blooms.
- •Prevent root rot by watering only when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry and ensuring good drainage.
- •Regular pruning encourages new growth and more flowers, while 4-5 hours of direct sunlight daily is essential.
- •Wash used tea leaves thoroughly to remove milk/sugar before adding to soil monthly to avoid fungus.
Why It Matters: Free tea leaves can make your hibiscus thrive, even in winter.
