Bud fall in Hibiscus

[ramendrab]

My Hibiscus buds fall off, I am unable to figure out the reason
I dont see any pests , the plant looks healthy , Sunshine is very good in Bangalore (where I live)
There are many other hibiscus plants that are blooming very well , just this one which is the problem
any help would be appreciated

Have you checked inside the buds for thrips insects?

Did it dry up, plants will drop flowers when they dry up, but hibiscus are pretty drought tolerant depending on the species

A picture could be helpful

If you have more than one hibiscus and all but one is doing well, I would suspect that the one with problems is planted too deeply in the soil. When a plant is planted too deep in the soil, water and gas exchange is hindered. Inconsistent water transpiration is a primary cause of premature bud drop.

If the plant is in the ground remove enough of the top soil to expose the root flare. If the plant is in a container, gently tip it out of the container and get a good look at the roots/soil ratio to see if up-potting is needed. Good luck, friend and keep us posted.
