White Texas Star Hibiscus

leew52
11 years ago

I have a White Texas Star hibiscus (2 yrs) in a large container that all of a sudden the leaves started to droop.

I noticed a few yellow leaves a couple of days earlier other than that it has been very healthy. Eight now it looks like IO am going to loose it. Also I water it daily so i do not think it is lack of water or too much wstering as it is a swamp plant. Any ideas on what it is and how to save it?

    They still do not like wet feet but love moist soil. It there any reason you do not have it in the ground? They do like lots of room to grow. All I have are the red ones seems my white one did not make it to adulthood.
