Small hibiscus can be planted by potted plants or planted in the ground. Of course, the suitable treatment methods for these two planting methods in winter are not the same.

The outdoor balcony can be moved inside to prevent frost and snow from causing frostbite in the branches and leaves. It is best to use plastic film to cover the outdoor planting in winter. The plastic film has excellent thermal insulation and antifreeze effect. This is beneficial to the safety of the small hibiscus for winter.
