ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

Description

Whether you eat okra or not, this plant is worth growing with deep crimson red pods and gorgeous yellow flowers that bees love. The most productive red variety, these plants produce tender, 6"-long pods that are delicious in soup, gumbo, and stew, or deep-fried. Introduced in 1983; An All-America Selections winner in 1988.

Okra is most tender when harvested at about 3"-4" long. Cut the thick stem with a sharp knife. The use of gloves and long sleeves is advised, as some people have an allergic reaction to the foliage. After initial harvest, removal of the lowest set of leaves will increase production. Harvest regularly; if pods are allowed to mature, plant will stop producing.

Features

  • Stunning color in the garden. Crimson pods and yellow flowers are prolific in the heat. Beautiful and edible.
  • Frost-sensitive annual. In frost-free areas, okra may be grown as a perennial.
  • When to sow inside, recommended for cold climates only: 4 to 6 weeks before your average last frost date, when soil temperature is at least 70 degrees F, ideally 80 degrees F. Use biodegradable pots to reduce root disturbance.
  • 15 days to emerge
  • A group of 3 seeds every 18"-24" Maturity in 55 days
  • When to sow outside, 1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date.
