Does anyone know where Rooibos seed can be purchased from?
Ah, wouln't it be nice to grow ones own wonderful bush tea! Wonder what climate would be ideal and what preparations are necessary for its use?
I'm fairly certain Silverhill has it. However, the process to create the tea from the plant is so amazingly elaborate and touchy, that I wouldn't ever dare trying. It involves a delicate fermentation in large heaps...Best left to the experts!Dan
Ah, easier to just buy it then!
There is a store in Atlanta Georgia that sells Rooibos for a really cheap price, btw.
The key ingredients to cultivate Rooibos are the African sun and soil. So maybe it really is best left to the experts.

(seems to be a S. African auction site...current auction was closed but has a long description. Just like eBay, you have to keep checking)
