About
Hibiscus Flowers from Nigeria are known for their deep crimson hue and tangy, cranberry-like flavour. Sourced from the calyces of the *Hibiscus sabdariffa* plant, these vibrant petals are naturally rich in antioxidants and vitamin C. Traditionally enjoyed as a refreshing herbal tea or iced infusion, hibiscus is also used in syrups, skincare, and wellness formulations. Our Nigerian Hibiscus Flowers are carefully dried to preserve quality and colour—ideal for both tea blends and bulk wholesale applications. Please consult a qualified health practitioner before use for therapeutic purposes.
