Can family heirloom Rose of Sharon survive in las Vegas?
This plant was planted by my husband's Italian grandfather in Buffalo, NY. We brought a segment of it to California and it has grown and thrived, even though we moved it twice. Now its about 6" tall and blooming and we are moving to las Vegas. Can it survive another move, and will it like the Las Vegas soil and heat?
Congratulations on your move. You are going to love living there.
If I were you, I'd grow the Rose of Sharon in a BIG container with a bag of Miracle-Gro potting-soil-plant food. Mix in water crystals so you don't have to water it so often (be sure to water the soil with the crystals before planting the hibiscus. The crystals need to swell up first). This way you can move it out of the hot sun when needed. At first I'd just give it morning sun.
We have several containers of hibiscus and they do very well. Before the first frost we cut them to the soil line and cover them so the roots won't die. But if you have a nice bright south window, you could put the R.O.S. there in the winter. Don't forget to water it ever so often.
