The Hibiscus plant is thought to be native to north Africa; there are many forms of the plant used commercially for its flavour, as an ornamental flower or in traditional forms of medicine. Hibiscus sabdariffa produces the flower most commonly associated as an ingredient in food and drink, it has distinctive yellow petals with a red centre and a deep red calyx, the cup shaped structure that supports the flower.
