When to prune hibiscus
When is the best time to trim back a hibiscus plant in Florida? How should the plant be trimmed? Our plants are taller than the roof of our one-story home.

The rule of green thumb for flowering shrubs is pruning after blooming. This way you are removing faded blooms but giving the plant a whole year to recover from surgery in time to flower again the following year. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
