Well, I have been planning to tell everyone that my roselle bloomed in early November but I have been too busy with work and life. A month passed, but the trees still produced flowers. I boiled some syrup out of it, and dried the rest for tea. They really quench your thirst on hot sunny day, the ice-cold drink made from diluted roselle syrup.

Well, my father had been planting it for as long as I can remember, but this is the first time I plant it myself. So glad it turned out great.
