Clemson Spineless Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus)
For over 80 years, robust 4' plants have been a favourite of American gardeners, producing an abundance of spineless dark-green, grooved pods. Okra can be grilled, braised, steamed, or sautéed to add body and flavour to soups, stews, and relishes. Garden Tip: Soak seed overnight in warm water to hasten germination. Pick pods when they're young, when they're about 2.5”–3" long.
