Hibiscus ‘Space Oddity’ (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis hybrid)

Hibiscus ‘Space Oddity’ (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis hybrid)

This unusual hibiscus has large 7-8” flowers with pretty orange ruffled petal edges. The heart of the flower is deep red that graduates to light lavender-white petals. We’re not sure where its name originated but ‘Space Oddity’ makes an attractive addition to any summer flowering container garden. As with all hibiscus, grow in full sun with plenty of water and fertilizer throughout the summer months to maximize the blooming potential.

Tips for Success:
 

• Sun, sun and more sun.

• They are warm-growing plants and suffer if subjected to
   cool temperatures over extended periods. As a rule, keep
   temperatures above 65°F, especially in the winter.

• Water on visual soil dryness or plant wilt. Severe wilt can hurt
  them. Careful watering is critical during the winter or anytime
  when the light level is low and temperatures are cool.

• Under high light and warm temperatures they are
  heavy feeders 
and need a balanced fertilizer applied
  on a regular basis. A fertilizer like Dyna Gro “Grow” 7-9-5 will
  help induce blooms.

• Flowering varies widely between varieties. Full sun, warm
  temperatures, a balanced fertilizer and careful attention to
  watering will produce the best results for your hibiscus.
