It is not hard to transplant hibiscus from one pot to another. They like to be rootbound, so make sure you only go one pot larger. I have eight pots myself. I use good potting soil, like miracle grow, mix in about a third to half of peat moss and fertilizer made for flowering plants (mine actually showed hibiscus flowers on the package). I wet the soil as I put it in, the peat moss is hard to wet otherwise. My hibiscus plants just seem to love that mixture. Even with the weird weather this year, my plants have been blooming great. Once you transplant the tree, give it a little more shade than normal while it gets used to the new pot and soil while it rests and concentrates on its roots. I hope this helps you Linda!

Hi Linda,
Are you wanting to move it into the ground or another container?
