The fruit (calyx) is 1- 1 1\/2 inches wide and is a fleshy deep red. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe red calyces are exported all over the world and used as food colorings and syrups.

It is prepared by boiling fresh, frozen or dried roselle fruit in water for 8 to 10 minutes (or until the water turns red), then adding sugar. Bay leaves and cloves may also be added during boiling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn many parts of the world it is used as jams, jellies and preserves. It can also be made into a tea. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis can be used as a food replacement and has fed many people in areas of the world where food is scarce. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is also included in my hot climate survival seed pack. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePerennial zones 9-11, can be grown as an annual.
