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...

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.

Here is a link that might be useful: Rooibos health benefits and history
