Hibiscus - Yellow Buds

14 years ago

I live in South FL and have two large pink Hibiscus plants on my property. Both bushes appear healthy but have recently started producing fewer blossoms. Addtitionally, there are numerous buds that turn yellow and die. Can anyone offer me some insight to this problem?

This is my first year. Mine do this on really hot days. Since they are in pots I moved them to the other side of the house where they get morning sun and they perked back up.
