The roselle, an edible hibiscus plant related to okra, is one of the most versatile plants in our garden. The red stems and baby pink hibiscus flowers stand out against the deep green foliage, making these a beautiful choice for edible landscaping. The calyces, or the buds directly beneath the flowers, are the most commonly used part of the plant, being popular for both coloring and flavoring teas and jams. The leaves are also edible, and the dried seeds are sometimes roasted and brewed like a coffee substitute. With so many uses, roselle belongs in every garden!
