Hibiscus: Can I root this from cuttings?, 0 by Dave67

I have rooted many forms of hibiscus including rose of sharon, using a 50/50 mix of perlite and vermiculite. I like to use the small clear dixie cups for containers so I can tell if roots are forming without having to pop them out. Make sure you put drain holes in the bottoms of the cups. I like to use an old cheap soldering iron because it makes nice even holes without ripping the plastic. Tip or stem cuttings will work, rooting hormone is optional.
Place in medium light, protect from sunlight and drying winds. For the first few weeks, I usually mist them as often as I can. It usually takes about 4 to 8 weeks to root depending on the plant and time of year.When they start to root they will require more water, dont let them dry out or they will die. When you see roots and new growth on top, they're ready to pot up.I hope this helps, good luck.
