You HAVE TO PLANT Roselle! | Home Apothecary

[@GoodYear-s2h]

I live in Australia and I come across this a couple of weeks ago and I decided to get the seeds and now I have two seedlings and they're growing like scenes overnight they're growing every minute and I can't wait to actually plant them in a big pot and see Rosella plant I can't wait I love it they're so healthy and Hardy as a seedling.😀

Absolutely amazing these cottage cheese bites. Adding some fresh cranberry hibiscus jam would a delicable treat. Thank you fromSWFL, USA…

[@mygrannysgarden]

I planted this year a roselle. I got a nice harvest from it. I enjoyed making a tea from it. I only had one plant. But looking forward, I think I will grow more to be able to have enough to the jam. Thank you for sharing.

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

Its so good. I'm so glad I gave it a try

I live in 8b northwest Florida near Alabama line. I like the leaves of roselle I recently discovered. I eat them raw, love the tart taste. I also add some to my lemon grass tea, I leave the stem on and dunk it in with my lemongrass wreath that I make from my lemon grass in garden. I like all tea just plain, I love the tart taste of roselle. I eat the leaf except not the stem although I did chew on it then tossed in compost bin. I put some in an okra casserole that I made recently and that was good too. I did recent' homestead update at beginning of the month, part was showing my roselle this year doing so good. I hope to have a good harvest. Last year I only planted two up my my house that didn't make much and early frost got them. This year I'm hoping for a large harvest so I can put some of the calyxes up and maybe try making wine from some of them. My mouth dropped open when you said how many pounds you got last year! I sure hope mine make as good as yours did!

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

Its such an amazing plant. You can also harvest the flowers, stuff and fry them

[@tinacarmichael5649]

Thank you so much for this video! I’m also in Florida and have never heard of this but definitely need to source some it sounds amazing!!

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

It's an amazing plant!

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

I got my seeds from Hoss Tools

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

Trying to keep it that way 😁

[@LifewithBlindaandChuck]

Was so nice to meet you at the Florida meetup thingy this weekend. I had never heard of Roselle until a couple of weeks ago when I saw a couple of videos from channels I follow. YT has opened up a whole new world for us folks here in Mississippi. lol

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

I'm so glad you made it out!

[@marilynfdavis891]

Sounds awesome!! 💜

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

It's an amazing plant

[@becl6944]

Nice job! I love roselle. I grew it last year but the calyxes did not mature enough. This year I grew cranberry hibiscus... and much more. Lol So great meeting you at the GC meet up and so many more. 🌱🤗

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

I'm so glad you made it out

[@brandyhamilton8944]

Have you tried overwinter one? It says zone 8 to 11... maybe cut one back and put a cover on it for winter 🤔

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

They grow so fast, it doesnt make sense to overwinter

[@kennethhart3904]

I'm in central Mississippi and have some growing they look good but when will they flower it's end of September now

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

I'm in 8b and mine just started flowering. It takes a while. I sowed mine out beginning of May. The calyx forms after the flower os spent

[@DC-wx8do]

I missed the Homesteaders event at the fair grounds this weekend. I’m in your area. Will you be hosting any canning classes? Newbie here, and I’m lost.

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

I'm considering hosting canning, fermenting and processing classses

[@DC-wx8do]

@@HiddenOaksHomestead That would be wonderful! I've several people that would be interested.

[@centraltexashomestead-mike4956]

Thanks you for this video, I never heard of this. I'm going to have Mike plant some of this. Will it grow in Texas? Blessings, Rochelle

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

It will! I got my seeds from Hoss Tools

[@JungleJoeVN]

Roselle is a great plant. I've been enjoying all of its parts in every way I can. I eat the leaves, make tea, juice, wine salad dressing and jam. I live in Vietnam so it grows year round.

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

Thanks for sharing

[@esthersdaughterlong8149]

I cannot find seeds to grow. Any suggestions?

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

For Roselle? Oir friends at @hosstools.com sell them.

[@ReNewedRootsHomestead]

I see you were boiling the seed pods. What did you do with them? Did you harvest seeds for next year?

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

I boiled them to get the pectin released for jam

[@dieterkaraluz1859]

What does roselle taste like? Is the tea refreshing in the summer?

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

Similar to cranberry or tart raspberry

[@LoriHakaMyHeartCries]

I've never even heard of it. I'm in zone 9 in Florida.

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

You can definitely grow it

[@OganicaBean]

Where to buy Hibiscus seeds? I’m here in Texas.

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

I got mine from Hoss Tools

[@OganicaBean]

@@HiddenOaksHomestead Thank you!

[@ReNewedRootsHomestead]

How did you roast the seed pods?

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

Covered in olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, then into the oven for 30 min at 400

[@Jeanokaz]

Is Roselle a Perineal or an Annual?

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

It can be a perennial in zone 9 and 10. It will not tolerate frost

[@karionhawkins3091]

Where did you get your seeds?

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]

Hoss tools

[@louisblock1006]

Could you please give me the exact Latin name?

[@HiddenOaksHomestead]
