Mixing organic materials like compost into the existing soil can greatly enhance these conditions. Plants grown in pots can be planted year-round, except during frost periods. After planting, it's important to water the plants until they are well-rooted. The size of the plant determines the number of plants per square metre.

Pruning a Hibiscus syriacus 'Hamabo'

The Hibiscus syriacus 'Hamabo' benefits from regular pruning to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. This shrub can be pruned once a year. Removing crossing, dead, or protruding branches helps improve air circulation and light penetration. Cutting back spent flowers during the blooming period can stimulate new blooms. Use clean, sharp pruning shears to avoid damaging the plant and to prevent the spread of disease. Regular maintenance ensures the plant remains attractive and healthy.

Watering a Hibiscus syriacus 'Hamabo'

Rainwater can be used for watering, which is beneficial for the plant. Ensure excess water can drain away to prevent root rot, whether planted in the ground or in a pot. Once established, this plant is somewhat drought-resistant, but young plants need regular watering. Drip irrigation systems are effective once the plant is well-rooted, but initial watering should be done manually.

Fertilising a Hibiscus syriacus 'Hamabo'

Using organic fertilisers is recommended, as they prevent root and leaf burn that can occur with synthetic options. Heijnen's Organic Starter Fertilizer and Organic Maintenance Fertilizer are excellent choices. Fertilise twice a year, in spring and summer, to ensure the plant receives the nutrients it needs. The amount of fertiliser depends on the plant's size, so adjust accordingly. Nutrients are absorbed when rain or watering helps them penetrate the soil. During dry spells, water the garden to activate the fertiliser and nourish the roots effectively.
