Has Roselle ever come up to your attention before? And I’m sure you’re aware that the Roselle medicinal benefits are numerous and are effective to use, did you know that?
Roselle is a thorny herbaceous annual. The plant reaches 4 meters. Upper leaves are profoundly palmate with 3–7 lobes, while below leaves are whole or heart-shaped. The leaf axils feature yellow flowers with crimson or purple centers. Round capsules with a prolonged crimson calyx hold brown seeds.
Soap, linoleum, paints, and varnishes are made from seed oil. Refining makes it edible. The sour-tasting delicate leaves and succulent calyx are cooked and consumed. Locals utilize the plant’s fiber to make ropes and nets to catch animals.
