Hey everyone! I'm new here and I apologize for starting a new thread. I tried finding a thread that already addressed my issue but I couldn't readily find one so I'm sure someone will kindly direct me to one if there is one and the mods will lock this one. LOL!
I have a perennial Hibiscus that I bought several years ago and planted it in a pot. It has done very well but it has outgrown it's pot. I would like to replant it in the ground. I was wondering if that's possible? Also, I've noticed, this year in particular, that I see no new growth towards the middle of the plant and only the outer edges so I'm wondering if I also need to divide it and if so, how I divide it without hurting it.
Any help would be much appreciated and of course, it's starting to grow so time is of the essence
I'm in zone 8a, and mine has been in the ground for years. You will have some dead looking stalks, but it should come back nicely. I've never tried to divide mine, I propagate more from seed or I've even rooted a few of the stems.
