Kenaf is grown in a large number of countries all around the globe for a wide variety of uses. It is grown for its fiber (used to make rope & cloth) & is also used to make manufactured wood products, insulation, paper, biofuel, edible food for humans, and for animal feed.
There’s nothing this plant can’t do! In addition to all this hard work, Kenaf is equally qualified to be a lovely ornamental! Its large showy Hibiscus blooms will attract bees, birds, & butterflies to your garden. The unique cannabis-shaped leaves on long, woody stems are also very ornamental.
