There are over 300 species of hibiscus in the world. Each species includes varieties that are not similar to others in either leaves or flowers.

According to the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , they have one thing in common - in natural conditions they grow in regions characterized by a warm and tropical climate.

This is precisely why hibiscus loves to be sprayed.

This procedure will help you make the foliage of your green “pet” beautiful and shiny.

To do this, you will need to prepare a special infusion based on onion peel.

Pour the scales left over from peeling the onion into the jar and compact them so that they fill half the container.

After this, fill the jar with boiling water and leave it to infuse for 1-2 days.

After straining, the solution is ready for use. It not only helps to give a glossy shine to the hibiscus leaves, but also protects the plant from spider mites.

The main thing to remember when spraying is not to get it on the flowers, as water can shorten their lifespan.
