Congratulations on the new job! Caring for
plants in offices is what I started doing 20+ years ago and I am still at it!
You are correct that Hibiscus, like most flowering
plants, needs to be quite potbound to
flower. In addition, they need an enormous amount of light to
flower indoors, more than the average home or office can provide, especially in northern latitudes. Most folks put their Hibiscus' outside during the warmer months to get them to
flower. They bring them inside in winter to protect then from the cold. During the winter indoors, they go semi-dormant, especially if kept on the cool side. This winter rest period will also help promote
flowers next summer.
Today was my first day and it was great! My boss is great! I am so excited!
