- Dried Hibiscus Flower
The Dried Hibiscus Flower stands as one of our core export products. This is because of its availability all year round albeit the peak period is between November and April, that is, the dry season. This product is widely grown in the tropics and its cultivation in Nigeria is highly concentrated in the country’s North, Eastern/Middle Belt regions. It is used to produce many products, including herbal tea, herbal medicines, syrups, and food coloring. It is also used in ready-to-serve beverages made by Knudson, whole foods, and other food and beverage producers.
We ship dried hibiscus flowers to major users in Western/Eastern Europe and Latin America. We export in whole flowers, sifting and fine cut. There are also varieties of Hibiscus Flowers available in Nigeria, and this would be supplied according to client request.
Dried hibiscus flower brings a touch of vibrancy wherever it goes! Not only does its eye-catching flower add beauty to any occasion, but the dried petals are known for their many health benefits. From teas and liquid extracts that can help treat various ailments to being used as remedies by different cultures throughout history, this incredible plant is definitely an all-around star!
If you’re looking to preserve hibiscus flowers for culinary or craft purposes, your best bet is paper pressing with non-bleached material. This method is ideal if you plan on using the petals in teas and other consumable items as they’ll be free of toxins like pesticides. Alternatively, silica gel drying can help create beautiful crafts – but always remember that it renders them unsuitable for consumption!
