Q.Flowers Falling Off

Anonymous added on September 8, 2011 | Answered

I was given a hibiscus as a gift and the flowers keep falling off before they open. What am I doing wrong? I have kept it in the house since I have received it and have watered it when it is dry. Have I watered too much or too little? Should I plant it outside? Please help!

It may need more light and more water to bloom properly. Try more light first. You do not need to plant it outside, but if you can move it outside until it gets cold, that will help. These articles will help you.
