My 24 hibiscus plants are about 8 months old and about 3-4 ft. high. The dozen on the West end of the fence line is thriving, but the plants on the East side of the fence look puny and have few leaves or flowers. Not sure why...
Thanks for your help.

Check for small fuzzy white or pink bugs in the stem and leaf junctions. You may have mealie bugs in the ones that are not thriving. It may also be due to poor light. Are the sickly ones in different light?
Use Lesco 13-24-6 with micros. It's great stuff. You buy it at Lesco Distribution Centers. They sell mostly to landscapers but they will sell to the public.
Yes, its OK to put it out now if you are south of Orlando.

Nitrophoska blue is good, but there are many fertilizers on the market that are specific for hibiscus.
