How to propagate hibiscus
Wait until the summer to propagate hibiscus.
At the ends of the branches, look for stems that are smooth and dark green with plenty of leaves. A healthy hibiscus will have plenty of new growth to choose from.
It's okay to take cuttings from stems that are slightly brown or darker green, but they must be rooted in topsoil to be successful. Select branches with smooth, green growth.
