Hi, I’m new here and about plants, so I’m not sure what’s considered normal for plants. I have a hibiscus plant and it was growing a few buds, but they suddenly fell off. What could be the cause of the buds falling off before the flower blooms?

Usually flowrrs falling off before they open would be underwatering, but it would help to see pictures of it
