Cranberry Hibiscus: Edible Multi-Vitamins!

Get some of your daily required vitamins simply by adding Cranberry Hibiscus to your diet. The easy to grow and propagate powerhouse of nutrition should be growing on everyone’s property in zone 8 to 11. Don’t let that stop you from trying to grow this in a container either, because this plant is delicious!
Here is a link to a plant specification sheet from ECHO:
This plant is also called Hibiscus acetosella, African Rose Mallow, False Roselle, Moroon Mallow, or Red Leaved Hibiscus. Originating from South Africa, this plant has become well known from the Americas to Asia. Attracting pollinators is another bonus! Just remember that the flowers bloom when the daylight hours shorten and they only stay open for a few hours. These flower blossoms make a great infusion enjoyed hot or cold.

You can purchase these plants at ECHO Global Farm in Fort Myers, Florida.
