This investigation was carried out during the two seasons of 2013 and 2014 at the experimental farm of Matrouh Agricultural Research Station, Siwa Oasis, Matrouh Governorate, Egypt, (29.11° N latitude and 25.33° E longitude). The study aiming at evaluating the effect of two types of composts pressed olive cake (POC) and POC+CM (chicken manure) combined potassium fertilizer levels and their interactions on yield, yield components and some sepals chemical constituents of Rosella plants. The obtained results could be summarized as follows:* The investigated compost types exerted significant effects on plant height, branches No. plant, seed yield (g plant) and seed yield (kg fed) of Roselle plants, and POC+CM compost exhibited the highest figures in 1 and 2 seasons. The adopted K fertilization rates significantly affected the abovementioned parameters, which gradually increased due to increasing k fertilization ratefigures in the 1 and 2 seasons. All the parameters were significantly influenced due to the interaction and the highest values were recorded under POC+CM compost and 48 kg K2Ofed -1 rate interaction in 1 and 2 seasons. *Sepals yield and its components of Roselle plants were significantly influenced due to the tested compost types and K fertilization rates and interaction in 1 and 2 seasons. Both POC+CM compost and 48 kg K2O fed -1 rate exhibited the highest figures of the abovementioned parameters 1 and 2 seasons. The highest values of sepals yield and its components were attained due to POC+CM compost as interacted with 48 kg K2Ofed -1 rate in 1 and 2 seasons. *N, P and K% of roselle petals were significantly influenced due to the investigated compost types and K fertilization rates. The highest N, P and K figures were attained with both POC+CM compost and 48 kg K2O fed -1 rate 1 and 2 seasons. In addition, interaction of POC+CM compost and 48 kg K2O fed rate exhibited the highest values, however, the differences did not reach the significance level, and such trend was true in1 and 2 seasons. * Chemical constituents of roselle sepals e.g. total carbohydrates, anthocyanin ascorbic acid contents and pH were significantly influenced due to K fertilization rates, whereas compost type exhibited similar trend, except with pH1 and 2 seasons. POC+CM compost and 48 kg K2O fed -1 rate interaction still exhibiting the highest values of the abovementioned parameters, however, the differences did not reach the significance level, and such trend was true in1 and 2 seasons. On conclusion, supplying POC compost combined with 48 kg K2O fed -1 resulted in higher values of sepals yield and quality and macronutrients uptake as well, however, it is advisable to replace POC compost by POC compost +CM which absolutely exhibited the highest values of the studied parameters under the present experimental conditions.
