It is an exceptional yield of spineless, tender ribbed pods with great taste. Stews have long been a staple. Canning, baking, roasting, or boiling are all good choices, but I like them raw when fresh. When the pods reach 3-5 inches in length, harvest them. Pods can grow to be very large, but smaller pods are more tender. Plants grow until it gets cold in the fall, so they can reach 6 feet or more in areas with a long, wet growing season.
Don't just let the 1st one grow as big as you can, it could shut the plant down. They do have some susceptibility to nematodes. If you would like to grow okra from the Spring through the summer and into fall, it is better to do 2 successive plantings in 2 different locations. One- from the Spring into summer, and the other from summer and into fall.
“All items arrived quickly and well packaged. I usually expect to have one or two live items out of a batch, but they are all thriving. I couldn’t be happier!”

“My live plants were packed like they belonged in Ft Knox. 😂 They really were packed beautifully. Only one plant, a bee balm, is questionable but signs that it will recover are happening. All in all I am thrilled with my plants and seeds. Some of my coreopsis have already sprouted!”

“I’ve ordered seeds from Whitwam Organics 3 or 4 times now. I love the simple packaging, clear planting guidelines, and variety they offer. Great germination rates!! The bare root plants I’ve ordered have come healthy, so healthy that the wild rabbits always approve of my menu upgrades! 😂🐰”
