Dear Chris P5,
With reference to your Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa).
This plant is actually a native from West Africa or Sri Lanka.
(Reference :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roselle_(plant))
Australia's Hibiscus natives are actually Alyogyne huegelii (Lilac Hibiscus), Alyogyne hakeifolia, natives of SA/WA, and Alyogyne cuneformis (Coastal Hibiscus) native of WA.
(ref:Australian Native Plants, Cultivation, Use in Landscaping and Propagation)
I attache a great website for further information
http://www.hibiscus.org
This great site has every thing one needs to know regarding these plants.
I hope this is helpful,
regards,
Stanley D.
