What causes hibiscus to have sparse leaves?

Question

I have a double yellow hibiscus but it has very few leaves on it. I have had it for probably 6 months planted in the ground but it has very little foliage. It does bloom and I add Miracle Grow every 2-3 weeks to no avail. What can I do? It hasn’t grown much taller or wider since planting. Thank you for your help with this.

Answer 1

would recommend having your soil tested. It sounds like there may be something missing that is keeping it from reaching its potential. A soil test will be able to tell you exactly what is lacking so that you can fix it accordingly.
