What's the ideal sunlight exposure for growing hibiscus outdoors?
I've got a small outdoor area with a mix of sun and partial shade, and I'm considering how to position my hibiscus plants for optimal growth. Being an engineering professor, I'm curious about how light exposure impacts photosynthesis, and I'd like to ensure my plants are getting the right amount of sunlight. I’ve researched that hibiscus generally thrives in full sun, but I'm wondering what specific light conditions are most beneficial. Would they tolerate some afternoon shade? Any insights or experiences with this would be great, as I want my hibiscus to flourish in my garden!
