Kenaf flowers

Kenaf flowers are part of a tropical plant related to the hibiscus family, known for its fast-growing, fibrous stalks. The flowers are generally large and trumpet-shaped, similar to hibiscus blooms, and range in color from white to pale yellow with a deep purple or maroon center. Each bloom lasts only a day, typically opening in the morning and wilting by the evening. In addition to their beauty, kenaf plants are valued for their strong fibers, used in making ropes, paper, and textiles, and for their environmental benefits, like carbon sequestration.
