The name in Mexico is JAMAICA! We uses for tacos, gelatin, iced water, iced cubes...😉👍 Oh! Almost forget, you don't need a dehydrator, after the seeds are taken out, you let thrm dry in the sun.
Happy to share. Even managed to get my mums recipe. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do 💕 Rosella Jam Remove the seeds, just cover half of them with cold water and bring to the boil. Boil covered for full 1/2 hour. Strain. To the juice than add the calyxes (red leaves) after washing and draining them well. The leaves must be barely covered with juice. Bring to the boil and boil for 20 minutes. Add 1 cup of sugar for each cup of pulp. Boil quickly for 20 minutes or until it falls thickly from a spoon when tested. If over boil the colour darkens. Cool a little before pouring into warmed jars to store before using.
On yield issue, the yield per plant depends on many factors, among which are: spacing between plants, soil type, care given to the plants (fertilizing, pests/diseases management, water supply, etc), variety, time of the year, location, etc. A good presentation, thanks.
Very nice video. I live in Florida just south of Orlando in Kissimmee, and I grew one plant. Now, it's in the hundreds. They say it can help with blood pressure and being type 2 diabetic I started growing a diabetic garden.
The Roselle has been on my wish list, after watching this I think I will be making a trip to Green Acres nursery. I didn’t know how to harvest it now I know.
I planted one of these last year and I was taking a lot of photos of it and sending off to relative and friends, to show the beauty of the plant!!! I had no idea I could eat it or make drinks and food out of it!!!! Now I really want Spring to come!!! But we are still getting snow!! Thanks for sharing!!!!! It's Happy Weekend Time!!! 🤗♥️🙏🏼
Couple things, lil' miss Sunshine: 1-Looks like your picking way too early. I've read they get more plump and best picking is about 3 weeks after blooming. 2-someone from one of the southern university extensions picked five+ 5-gallon buckets from just _one_ plant in a season. Gotta be an IGFA all-tackle record!!

I am used to using the flower for tea! But will do it your way. I do know like you say, something like cranberry, men is used to use for their kidneys and prostate.
oh my god this is the plant I want to grow the most however a lot of people don't like its shape regarding landscaping. So I was hesitated about that but now I just gonna grow it :)
We make Tea with the dried blooms/buds … the leaves n the dried flowers are eaten with rice… it’s cooked with yam, a pinch of salt n mashed together. It comes out red n so delicious. I don’t know why they are called hibiscus… yeah they are of the family but it’s Roselle.
You can use the leaves as well, (crush the leaves or blend them but not too much(smooth) once that is done wash them +- 3 times and add that to your stew or soup. (I prefer to make tea from the leaves We (Namibians) harvest it all year around)
Is harvest done after blooms are fading away, or before they actually bloom? This is great information. I love teas and one of my favorites is a chamomile rose tea that has hibiscus in it.
I'm from South Texas, Hispanics sell it in tea form and people enjoy drinking it. When you chew the flower before making into tea, it is sour sweet. Didn't know the leaves were edible, so glad I saw your video. I have been an herbalist for the past ,40 years and always would buy hibiscus to make my tea. I'm 74 and so far stay way from om chemicals and resort to my natural supplements.
7:46 The petal. You can make tea or juice with it. You can mixed it with ginger, mint, or pineaple juice. You can also eat the leaves like spinach in a fresh tomato stew or peanut butter stew.

My mom grew up in the Caribbean and they use it to make sorrel which is a drink from Trinidad and Tobago. ❤️🇹🇹 Tastes like Christmas 😊
Ours are blooming. I’m so excited to spend the next 2 weeks harvesting.
Jams and tea are definitely in our future. Our question is how do we save the seeds?
We grew rosella plants when I was growing up and would make it into jam. Rosella jam is the jam I’ve ever had. 💕from Perth, Australia 🇦🇺
that is one of the things we want to make with rosella. we will have a few good harvest with our plants. do you have a recipe to share?
Happy to share. Even managed to get my mums recipe. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do 💕

They are wonderful! We will grow it every year from here on out.
This is the first time seeing the hibiscus plant. I love the drink.
It's so good! We recommend growing it.
We grow those in Jamaica...we call it sorrel
I started 10 last year and they are back! 10 more started. They love growing in coastal South Carolina.

I love the the tea, I need to grow my own, the flower is pretty 👍👍
we totally recommend. It is beautiful!
You seem happier, lol
Interesting stuff thanks. Chris from England.
Our pleasure!
Can we contain the height? Like make a bush instead of a "tree".
oh my god this is the plant I want to grow the most however a lot of people don't like its shape regarding landscaping. So I was hesitated about that but now I just gonna grow it :)

Grown them but just for the flowers I didn't know they were Adobe
they are very edible. Aaron loves grabbing a few and chewing on them lol

I'm always trying to learn everything I can. Thanks for the info. New sub!
Welcome! We are the same. We love to learn new things and this roselle was one of those things we will grow every year.
💜👍
Where is this? Does the roselle grow well in cool weather?
roselle is a hot weather plant. needs to have almost 4 months of over 80 degrees to grow well. we are in California.
Is harvest done after blooms are fading away, or before they actually bloom? This is great information. I love teas and one of my favorites is a chamomile rose tea that has hibiscus in it.
really after the blooms are finished. We are so stoked to also growing our own tea!

I'm growing these now but they aren't as big as yours. How long did yours take to get that tall?
Why did you throw away the seed pod? Won't you want them to grow more next year, or are they not viable?
Can you share where to get the seeds for ROSELLE HIBISCUS
growhoss.com/products/roselle-hibiscus?variant=45579368300854
Hi which psrt of roselle is made tea the seeds or the petals thank you
7:46 The petal. You can make tea or juice with it. You can mixed it with ginger, mint, or pineaple juice. You can also eat the leaves like spinach in a fresh tomato stew or peanut butter stew.
Can I grow this at 4000 feet in california?
You sure can. It just needs at least 3 months of pretty hot weather.
Can you just eat it like in a salad?
Yes! It is bright and citrusy…it would be fantastic in a salad.
Awesome, where can I get it?
