Peach Hibiscus • Beauty: Large and attractive flowers of soft peach color make the plant very soft and attractive. • Uses: An ornamental plant ideal for gardens, balconies and tubs. • Specialties: Blooms for a long time and adds a premium touch of soft color and aesthetic beauty to the environment.

**Watering:** Maintain consistent moisture during the growing season. Deep watering once the top inch of soil dries out is ideal. **Lighting:** Requires at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal flowering. **Pruning:** Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and encourage new growth, removing any dead or damaged branches.

### Potting & Planting Instructions for Peach Hibiscus 1. **Container Selection**: Choose a terracotta, ceramic, or nursery pot with generous drainage holes at the base. 2. **Soil Mix Recipe**: Use Well-draining garden soil enriched with 30% organic vermicompost. Adding a layer of coarse gravel or leca at the bottom enhances oxygenation. 3. **Planting Depth**: Position the plant at the exact same root collar depth as in its nursery container. Avoid burying stems too deep. 4. **Initial Settling**: After potting, water thoroughly until water drains freely, then place in bright indirect light for 3–5 days to acclimatize before moving to full sun.

Harvest mature stems/leaves as needed using clean sterilized pruning shears.

Pairs wonderfully with drought-tolerant companion plants and complementary flowering plants varieties.
