Hibiscus

They love as much heat and sun as possible. The best spot for them is where they can see the sun during the majority of the day.

They will do their best and flower profusely in bright light. A nice bright place outside would be on a sunny balcony, deck, or backyard; inside your home, it would do best in a sunny window sill. Remember that plants will grow and flower based on how much light they receive.

They like the soil to stay consistently moist, but not soaking wet. Give them water whenever just the top inch of the soil is starting to get dry. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light. Water your plant before the leaves start to wilt because once this occurs, the plant becomes stressed and has less energy to flower, shedding the flowers currently on it.

They like a high humidity environment. Outdoors, this should happen naturally in the summer, but indoors, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.

This plant is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home.
