I've moved a big hibiscus that was outdoors all summer into our south bay window. It's still putting out blossoms, but the leaves are dropping.
Submitted by: AdministratorDon't worry about the leaf drop. It's natural for a hibiscus to drop leaves when it is brought into dry indoor air. Mist it often to help it adjust. It will overwinter well as long as it isn't over-watered. This may be happening if the foliage turns from strong green to a ghostly green. If that occurs, take it out of the pot and let the root ball dry for a day or two before you put it back. Fertilize with a dilute, balanced mix once a month until the days begin to lengthen and new growth begins.
