When is the best time of year to prune a hibiscus?

The best time to prune a hibiscus is in late winter or early spring, just before new growth begins. This timing allows you to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged branches without interfering with its blooming cycle. If you're in a warmer climate, pruning can be done after the last frost to promote healthy growth. Always make sure to use clean, sharp tools to prevent any potential disease transmission.
