Is My Hibiscus Sprouting New Plants?

Question

I have some sprouts coming out of the base of my hybiscus plant. I thought they were weeds but were difficult to pull and felt attached to the roots. Could they be baby plants? I have had the plant for about 5 years. Thank You!

Answer 1

It doesn't look like hibiscus seedlings. They would have small, round leaves. I'd say some seeds blew in there while it was outside and are growing. Think about what else you grow outside that might look like those. It also could be weed seeds.
