Temperature. Chinese hibiscus is a fairly heat-loving indoor plant. In summer it should be kept at 20-25 °C, and in winter - 15-20 °C. Minimum permissible temperature V winter time 13 °C.

Lighting. Chinese rose is a light-loving indoor plant. Prefers bright, but diffused light, with a small amount of sunlight. In winter, hibiscus needs a fairly bright room. East or west windows - the best place for him. And on the south window in the hottest hours of the day you will need shading from direct sunlight.

Watering. From spring until autumn, hibiscus needs abundant watering. The soil should be moist all the time. In winter, watering is moderate. Avoid drying out the earthen ball or over-watering it. Never water your hibiscus with cold water!

Fertilizer. From April to August, every three weeks, the Chinese rose is fed with special fertilizers for flowering plants.

Air humidity. Hibiscus needs regular spraying.

Transfer. Chinese roses are replanted in March-April.

Soil composition: 1 part peat soil; 1 part leaf soil; 1 part turf land; 1 part sand.

After replanting, the indoor plant is pruned, and in the summer, if desired and necessary, you can pinch it repeatedly. The dishes for Chinese roses are preferably spacious. In the spring, the hibiscus is shortened, and then transplanted into a larger pot (if necessary) and into fresh soil.

Reproduction. Hibiscus propagates by cuttings. It is best to root them in July-August. Green apical cuttings with 2-3 internodes are cut, planted in pots and covered with jars. After a month, the cuttings take root. In spring, young plants are transplanted into large pots with a nutrient mixture consisting of turf (4 parts), leaf (3 parts) soil, humus (1 part) and river sand(1 part). To prevent young plants from stretching and developing side shoots, they are cut off. Flower buds are mainly formed on shoots of the 3rd-4th branching order, so pinching and pruning of the main and lateral shoots begins when they reach 8-10 cm in length. From the moment of pruning and pinching to flowering, 3-3.5 months pass.

When the earthen ball dries out or is over-watered, the hibiscus leaves wither and turn yellow, and buds and flowers may also fall off.

During flowering and budding, hibiscus should not be moved, rotated or rearranged, as this will lead to the flowers and buds falling off.

The beginning of hibiscus flowering is accelerated by its pruning. In mid-spring, you should cut off all dried, lost leaves and elongated shoots. Healthy shoots need to be shortened by a third of the length or by half.

Hibiscus - the flower of death: why? Signs and superstitions

Many exalted people tend to see the short-term flowering of each individual hibiscus flower as a bad sign. Let us remind you that a hibiscus flower lives from 1 to 3 days. At the same time, the flowering period of the plant in total takes about 6 months (from April to October), which corresponds to the natural rhythm of life of most representatives of tropical flora.

Important. Esotericists advise paying attention only to “unplanned” hibiscus flowering. Pay attention and don't wait for death!

Another explanation for dark superstitions can be found in the ancient Indian epic. One of the most fierce goddesses in Hinduism, Kali, embodies destruction and death. It is Kali who is usually presented with hibiscus flowers during a visit to the goddess’s temple. But how does Hinduism interpret death? Simply put, this is the beginning of something new. For the people of India, Kali is one of the most revered goddesses, and hibiscus is one of the most beloved flowering plants.

Chinese rose flowers are revered in South Korea and on the islands of Polynesia. For example, Red flower hibiscus - a symbol of the paradise island of Haiti

In general, the gloomy speculations accompanying the flowering of hibiscus are most likely associated with a “shady” acquaintance with the culture of Asia and Oceania and are completely groundless

• during the rest period the plant does not need additional feeding

The soil

Hibiscus are very fond of acidified soil (in this they are very close to roses). The planting site is prepared in the autumn

How to prepare a place for planting hibiscus?

1. Prepare a soil dressing mixture. For a garden bed with an area of ​​1 m² you will need

• granulated superphosphate - 40 g
• river sand - 5 l
• cow humus - 5 l
• yellow clay (carefully dried and crushed) - 5 l

Important: the length of the cut part should be 20-25% of the length of the branch/shoot

Types of possible trimmings

• spring

To stimulate flowering

• hygienic (thinning)

Damaged, diseased, and withered branches/shoots are removed. Healthy tissue is green

• corrective

For bush shaping

• autumn

Performed after flowering, no later than September

• radical

All branches/shoots are cut off. This is done extremely rarely if the plant is in danger of dying.

Terry hibiscus: home care, cultivation

Caring for terry hibiscus is no different from general recommendations on caring for hibiscus at home (see the beginning of the article)

The flower that will become the mother plant must be absolutely healthy and at least 1 year old. The age of the escape must also exceed 1 year

How to prepare a cutting?

1. Use a sharp tool to cut off the shoot. Before use, the instrument should be treated with alcohol or any other disinfectant solution.

Please note: there must be no

• foreign stains
• rotten areas
• signs of pest infestation
• signs of viral infection

1. Using oblique cuts, divide the shoot into several parts, each 8 cm long. The cut parts should have several leaves and several nodes (growth points)

1. Sprinkle the cut on the mother plant with activated carbon, crushed into powder. Activated carbon The upper cut of the cutting is also processed (if there is one)
2. Cut off the lower leaves from the cuttings (if any) and place the cuttings in a heteroauxin solution (heteroauxin is a fertilizer to activate root formation). Before using fertilizers, be sure to read the instructions

Important: hibiscus does not root well in aquatic environment. For full development, the cutting requires a special substrate.

1. The substrate for cuttings consists of equal parts calcined sand and steamed high-moor peat. Heat treatment of the substrate allows you to neutralize all pathogenic microflora

1. Fill the transparent disposable cups. Don’t forget to pre-pierce holes for drainage in the bottom and bottom of the glasses

1. Place the cutting in the substrate strictly vertically. The second growth node from the bottom should be at the level of the substrate. Be sure to compact the substrate around the cutting

1. One of the most important conditions successful root formation - sufficient moisture. But this does not mean that the substrate needs to be filled with water. The container with the cutting should be placed in plastic bag, creating a kind of mini-greenhouse. Do not forget to spray the cuttings daily with clean, soft water.

1. To prevent the development of a fungal disease, treat the cuttings with a solution once a week aqueous solution foundationazole (substance concentration in water 0.2%)

1. Avoid direct sunlight falling on the cuttings. The light should be diffused, but in sufficient quantity. The photoperiod for cuttings should be 12 hours, followed by a night break. You can lengthen daylight hours with the help of phytolamps

1. Try to create optimal temperature conditions. The optimal temperature indicator for fast and high-quality root formation is considered to be +25⁰С
