Seeds from Hibiscus cannabinus is a perennial plant from the Malvaceae family that grows in full sun as well as partial shade and is endemic to tropical areas. It is drought tolerant. It tolerates both acidic and alkaline conditions. The plant should be watered regularly and fertilized as needed. A close relation to okra, cotton and hollyhocks. It has a very ancient history with its origins in Western Sudan, Africa and East Indies and cultivated as far back as 4000 years ago. This plant grows beautiful palmate leaves that look like the marijuana plant. A plant can grow very fast and can reach a height of 12 or more feet. It produces very beautiful dark red flowers with evergreen oval shaped leaves. Hibiscus cannabinus is indeed a very useful plant. The flowers, leaves, seeds and roots are used in variety of ways. The leaves and roots are edible, and they are used along with the seeds in herbal medicine for the treatment of coughs.

Seed Orders A seed is a live product that depends on many important related grower skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, irrigation, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease-free soil, and reasonable weather conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as temperature, moisture content, light intensity, and contamination of planting media. These factors are totally out of my control and are your responsibility and risk. Consequentially, I cannot unconditionally guarantee seed to perform properly regardless of conditions or the buyer's methods or mistakes. Seed Orders: Germination instructions will be shipped with the order. If for any reason you are not 100% pleased with your purchase please do not leave negative feedback. Please e-mail me and I will gladly replace anything at my cost if available. I answer my e-mails every day and would love to hear from you about any problems. Thank you so much for looking at Georgiavines. Lori Cancellations: As of 2/24 I will be charging a restocking charge of 20% of the order for all canceled orders. Unfortunately many charges go into preparing to ship all of my items. Of course I will always cancel orders that are requested. Please order responsibly.
