Hibiscus have bright bold tropical flowers and grow very well in coastal and frost free areas of the north of the North Island. We propagate over 30 Fijian and Hawiian varieties. Flowers range from bright bold oranges, yellows, reds to paler apricots, pinks or white. In the subtropical north of New Zealand Hibiscus can flower for 8 to 10 months of the year.
Hibiscus like other tropical plant prefer to be planted in mid spring and summer so they can get well established before the cold and wet of the following winter.
They really like the heat, so a sunny, sheltered well drained position is best. We reccomending feeding with Nitrophoska Blue fertiliser every 2 months September to March.
Hibiscus do so much better if they are pruned in early spring every year. Where we live September is a good time. Don't be afraid to prune them by a third, they will give a so much more prolific flowering display if you do this.
Our main selling season is October to March and in the 2010/11 year the price is $13 each for a well established plant in a 2.5 litre pot.
We can courier the Hibiscus to you for $12 per box. Normally 4 to 6 plants will fit into a box. Not all varieties will be available at any one time so bear that in mind when ordering. Please contact us by Email if interested.
