Hibiscus flowers are a beautiful and nutritious flower that are able to offer a wide variety of health benefits. In fact, hibiscus tea is loved all over the world for its tart flavor and rich vitamin C content. In addition to being a delicious drink, hibiscus flowers are also said to help with blood pressure, reduce cholesterol levels and even prevent cancer.
In some cases, smoking a flower can actually be harmful to your health. For this reason, you should avoid smoking certain types of flowers, including oleander, daffodil, lily of the valley and rhododendron. However, there are several flowers that can be smoked safely, such as chamomile and lavender.
If you are interested in trying out a new way to enjoy hibiscus, try making a wood-fired hibiscus flower cocktail. This unique beverage combines an aromatic infusion of hibiscus flowers with a smoked simple syrup. The result is a refreshing and relaxing drink that can be enjoyed any time of day.
If you are looking to grow hibiscus in your garden, it's important to keep in mind that this plant requires specific conditions to thrive. If you don't meet these requirements, your plant may experience a loss of color or blooms. This can be caused by a number of factors, such as sudden changes in weather, not enough sunlight or water and over or under-watering. To prevent this, be sure to water your hibiscus often and use fertilizer frequently.
