Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comI just got the plant for Mother’s Day and always wanted one, but the leaves are turning yellow. What tips do you have on replanting it in a container so it could be brought inside in fall? I live in Buffalo, NY.
It is in the sun and I am watering it daily. I have not replanted it yet, any tips?

Hibiscus do not like over watering or too much room to grow (if planted in a container). Yellow leaves usually mean too much water, but conversely can also mean not enough. Try cutting back on the watering (only when top 3-4 inches are dry), give it a chance to recover, and try again. Replanting should be fine, but I would wait until the plant begins to perk up a bit.
