Delicious in soups and stews, this okra variety just keeps on bearing fruit. Expect a bumper harvest with this heritage plant. Tasty fruits about 7cm long are a Mediterranean cuisine favourite. They thrive in hot weather and are surprisingly drought tolerant.

  • Growing Information

    How to Sow

    Okra is best sown 20mm deep directly where it is to grow, but can also be germinated in small pots. Plant three to four seeds together for bushy, productive plants. Prepare soil well, and keep moist. Plant in a different location every year.

    How to Harvest

    Okra pods develop quickly and must be picked young or they become tough. About four days after planting, your pods will be 5 to 8mm long and ready for harvest. Cut the stems above the cap at the top of the fruit.
