Added to my garden last summer, bloomed nicely. Recently became aware I was supposed to prune it and haven't yet. Should I prune now (I'm in zone 6A and plant is dormant, brittle), or, should I wait and prune later?
Lady Baltimore Hibiscus
You should prune all dead stems from the plant now. Hardy Hibs bloom on new growth, and usually die back to the ground in winter.
