Hibiscus Seeds
Hibiscus sabdariffa
Our Hibiscus seeds (Hibiscus sabdariffa) produce the classic roselle variety used worldwide for teas, beverages, and botanical preparations. The deep crimson calyces that form after flowering are dried to make the tart, ruby-red hibiscus tea known as agua de Jamaica in Mexico, bissap in West Africa, and karkade in Egypt.
