Hi,

I've never had a hibiscus plant before. Last week,

it was blooming and looked great. Now, suddenly after

high temperatures and heat, all the leaves are shriveled

up or drooping. A new bloom that was about to open

is dying off. The majority of the leaves are all

dried up and have the consistency of paper. A few

leaves are not totally dried up yet, but are curled up and

drooped. I discovered that the plant needed a bigger pot.

Whenever I watered it, the water went straight through

to the saucer. I just transplanted it, but it does

not look any better (worse, actually). I tried

misting the leaves, but it hasn't helped. Watering

the plant also isn't helping.

Is there anyone that can help me? I keep my

plants on a balcony. It gets a lot of sun.

Thanks,

Lori
