Highlights:
- Size: Small
- Full-bloom Period: Spring
- Quantity: 20 pieces
- Soil requirements: Giant dark purple hibiscus flowers prefer well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.0. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: These hibiscus plants thrive in full sun, requiring at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. They can tolerate partial shade but may produce fewer flowers.
- Watering requirements: Hibiscus plants need consistent moisture, especially during the growing season. Water them deeply once or twice a week, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. Mulching can help retain soil moisture.
- Planting season: The best time to plant giant dark purple hibiscus seeds is in the spring after the last frost has passed. This allows the plants to establish themselves during the growing season.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds about 1/4 inch deep in the soil. Space the seeds or seedlings 2-3 feet apart to allow for adequate air circulation and room for growth.
- Germination time: Hibiscus seeds typically germinate within 14-21 days under optimal conditions. Keep the soil consistently moist and maintain a temperature of around 70-75°F (21-24°C) for best results.
- Maturity time: Giant dark purple hibiscus plants usually reach maturity and begin flowering within 3-4 months after planting. The exact time may vary depending on growing conditions.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest hibiscus flowers is early in the morning when the blooms are fully open and fresh. This is when they have the highest moisture content and are most vibrant.
- Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the flowers, leaving a few inches of stem. Handle the flowers gently to avoid bruising. Store the harvested flowers in a cool, dry place or use them immediately for culinary or decorative purposes.
