The pink hibiscus is growing darker in monsoon

September 27, 2024 8:16am CST
In Calcutta it has been raining for the last 7 days. There is no sunlight. Due to the heavy rains the hibiscus in the pots in my balcony is growing darker in colour. It was a bit off-pink previously. Once sunlight comes up the flowers will be brighter.

I have 4 different colors 2 in the front yard & 2 in the back & the 1's in the back are growing better & blooming more than the 1's in the front I hope that will change over time.

@sathviksouvik they do, the 1's in the back are growing faster than the 1's in the front but as long as they're green & not wilting or dying I'm good.
