There are more than 300 species of hibiscus Flower
found worldwide but in Nigeria, the red Hibiscus Flower is very common.
Hibiscus Flower plant is grown more by Farmers in
the northern part of Nigeria and it is usually harvested from
late-December/early-January.
When dried, the red Hibiscus Flower
(Zobo Leaves) is used to produce a popular heath drink/tea called Zobo In
Nigeria.
In these days of low pricing of the Nigerian Crude oil in the international market, exporting the dried Hibiscus Flower has become a very lucrative export business that can bring in more Dollar flow into country.
