DESCRIPTION

Freedom is extremely attractive, and thus a sought after variety of hibiscus. The shrub grows up to 1.5 m in height. Its stems are stiff and facing upwards. They are covered by  extremely attractive leaves. They are narrow, lobed, hand-shaped and dark green colour. Hibiscus blooms from mid-summer to mid-autumn. Flowers are full, extra large (up to 6 cm in diameter), and a deep pink colour. They remain on the shrub for a long time. The shrub is perfect for both planting individually and in a group.

ADVICES

The shrub is best planted in a sunny position, sheltered from wind. The plant prefers fertile soil, humus rich and permeable, slightly acidic or alkaline. It should be sufficiantly moist.

When the plant starts coming into bud, begin to support it with fertilizers for flowering plants. In the winter period it is necessary to wrap the Hibiscus with hay or branches of pine. In Spring, prune the young shoots in order to stimulate plant growth. Then get rid of the damaged and frostbitten parts. The plant should be watered regularly.
