Bringing indoors for winter

18 years ago

Not sure what type of hibiscus I Have but it's about 1.5 feet tall,large red floweres that have been non stop since may. I plan to bring it indoors for the winter and looking for advice as to proper care. I'll keep it next to a slider with some direct sun. Can and should it be cut back, should it be misted, shoud it be fed.
