Hibiscus Care Guide

1. **Sunlight**: Most plants in Hawaii thrive in full sunlight, as the islands receive ample sunshine year-round. Place your plants where they can receive direct sunlight for several hours each day.

2. **Watering**: Hawaii's tropical climate means frequent rain showers, but depending on your location and the specific needs of your plants, you may still need to water them regularly, especially during dry periods. Monitor the soil moisture and water as needed to keep it consistently moist but not waterlogged.

3. **Soil**: Use well-draining soil rich in organic matter. This helps retain moisture while allowing excess water to drain away, preventing waterlogging.

4. **Fertilizing**: Apply a balanced fertilizer to your plants regularly to provide essential nutrients for healthy growth. Follow the instructions on the fertilizer packaging for the correct application rate and frequency.

5. **Mulching**: Mulch around the base of your plants to conserve soil moisture, suppress weed growth, and regulate soil temperature. Organic mulches like compost, shredded leaves, or bark chips work well in Hawaii's warm climate.

6. **Pests and Diseases**: Keep an eye out for common pests and diseases that can affect plants in Hawaii, such as aphids, mealybugs, scale insects, fungal diseases
