A question about hibiscus?

I just bought a hibiscus--I learned that they need sun, but all I really have is a south-facing window. I am sure that is okay during the winter months, but in the summer, could I put it under lights? Or can I skip the natural sun, and keep it under artificial lights all year round?

    do you have a tropical hibiscus or a hardy one? if tropical, just stick it outside in the summer. a hardy one should be planted in the ground.
