I have a beautiful memory of sitting in the kitchen at yes please bookhouse and care space with a group of people peeling open mannyy hibiscus calyxes that we had just harvested from the garden for tea and whatever else people were dreaming of. We did this until our fingers were stained all while looking at and being read aloud beautiful childrens books written by black authors. It made my inner child very happy. I love this plant and this plant family! Same family as Okra and Cotton and so many other beautiful plant beings! I enjoyed reading this!!
