The dried cranberry-tasting calyces are commonly steeped to make a popular infusion known as carcade or Hibiscus Tea as well as in jams & preserves and in herbal medicine (the seeds are a good source of lipid-soluble antioxidants)

Although native plant to the tropics, they are also perfectly capable of being grown in the UK - outdoors in southern areas and as a greenhouse plant in more northerly parts.

Seed Germination
  • Sow indoors at any time. 
  • Lightly scarify seed between 2 sheets of sandpaper (this allows moisture to penetrate the hard seed coat triggering germination)
  • Soak the seeds for 2 hours in hot, but not boiling water. 
  • Sow 1-2mm deep into moist, well-drained seed compost
  • Use of a head mat is recommended for optimal germination maintaining a temperature of 19-22c
  • Germination takes 30-90 days approx and can be erratic as in nature. 
  • Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle to individual pots and grow on. 
  • If planting out do so when well after all danger of frost has passed and plant is established.
