    I saw one of these for the first time ever today. Found one on the railing of my back porch. I figured it would be at least slightly poisonous, so I left it alone. Now, to look for the Tussok moth. By the way, I found mine in Hope Mills, NC. Not florida. I had recently (about a month ago) had a very large sickly looking oak tree removed. It was looking very ill. And was losing branches, many quite large. Falling of and destroying chain link fence and a metal clothes line. The tree branches that is, not the worms.

    Awesome video! I am growing roselle (sorrel) in 15-gallon containers now and they are doing great. First thought: That tool to remove the seeds is a great idea. I'm getting one. Also, you present safe best management practices when encountering pests or disease, but you don't recommend natural, bioavailable fertilizer like fish hydrolysate and seaweed. The chemical fertilizers like 10-10-10 prevent the plant from forming much needed mycorrhizal and beneficial bacterial associations These associations actually help prevent pests and diseases. But the UF won't teach that. Their agricultural/horticultural depts are well funded by the chemical fertilizer and pesticide businesses. Thank you for a wonderful presentation!

    @ndbg46881 glad you hear you are giving this a try! The plants can get up to 6 feet tall and 4 feet wide. Your local extension may have more information about growing this in your area. You are a bit north of the upper range. They prefer zones 8-11.

    Thank you for the content - you should be aware though that US gardeners know sorrel to be a different plant, a short leafy green plant. And even another clover-like green plant called wood sorrels. It would be a safe bet that most Americans wouldn't even know of a hibiscus with fruity calices, let alone that other countries would call it sorrel.

    • @letstalkgardeningbyufifas

      Common names to make life tricky at times. This plant goes by roselle, Florida cranberry, or Jamaican sorrel. The Latin name is Hibiscus sabdariffa.

    I have camphor trees all over the place in my new backyard(Tampa) and air potatoes in a of couple spots. I'm going to systematically try to eradicate the air potato. the camphor trees are okay, they can be cut back and managed before they get gigantic. I figured the Indians used the leaves as a mosquito repellent, but then I learned that the trees were introduced long afterwards.

    Thank you for this video. This is my first year growing it and I have started late. My plants are only 3 weeks old. I am truly hoping i have enough time left to get a good harvest from them. I do have more seeds peft for next year and I will definately start earlier indoors. I was wondering what the time frame as in days to harvest are/is?
