There's something for everyone â from soccer and baseball for team-oriented kids, to tennis, fencing, karate, dancing, and swimming for kids who'd rather go solo. Don't be surprised if it takes a few tries â or a few seasons â to find the sport that's right for your child.
Hardy hibiscus also benefits from warm temperatures for bud growth; approximately 68 F is ideal. Unlike tropical hibiscus, the hardy varieties will survive freezing temperatures, although flowering will reduce. Provide a 12-inch layer of mulch to protect your hibiscus if there is a chance of frost in your microclimate.
Hardy hibiscus need very little care over the winter, they are root hardy to about zone 5 with no protection. They die to the ground each year. If you have a tropical hibiscus, remember it is a TROPICAL. They will not tolerate more than a night or two of light freezes. Even one hard freeze (below 25) could kill the plant. These plants are native to sunny, warm and usually humid tropical places.
