Q.Hibiscus Care

Anonymous added on October 16, 2011 | Answered

I have a potted hibiscus plant (3 years old) which I place outside during the summer months. I have moved the plant once again for the winter season indoors and the leaves are turning yellow and falling. Is this a normal adjustment or can you tell me what is wrong?

It is probably suffering a little bit of shock from moving inside, but this is typical for hibiscus. It may stay looking yellowish for the season, but it will recover in the spring. These articles will help:
