Hibiscus Rosella

R28.00

Hibiscus rosella loves the heat.
It is a beautiful plant and can be used for aesthetic appeal, as well as to harvest for teas, and the leaves and petals are edible.
The flowers attract pollinators and are loved by bees. They are easy to grow from seed. The flavour is similar to a mix of cranberry and a raspberry.
