Do Hibiscus die easily in chameleon enclosures?

I cant seem to keep them looking good. If i rotate them they look ok. I think schefflerra are easier to keep. I use a plant light too and i still barely keep em aive.

Yeah they do. I would use a pothos, ficus, of umbrella plant

With a plant light and 5.0 (I use double tube fixtures) a chameleon enclosure is a great environment for hibiscus and they are completely edible and nutritious. I have them planted in all of my enclosures and they are thriving!
I do not rotate plants at all.
I try not to disturb the environments and all my plants are planted in the substrate at the bottom of the enclosures.
I have had good success keeping them in pots in cages too.
These plants need lots of light.

Thanks for the tip, heading to Walmart today! Hoping my 5.0 is enough to keep it alive.
