I live in zone 6b and planted the seeds pretty late. I wasn’t expecting much and was mostly growing it for the flowers. The plant germinated quickly and not only did it thrive, it even fruited! It’s now October and we have had a handful of frosts and the deer have helped themselves to the leaves so imagine my surprise when I saw the plant trying to bloom another flower!

All of my okra got shaded out this year and I didn't get one single pod in any of my backyard raised beds. Out of desperation I planted these seeds in the only space I had left which was the front yard flower planter. I couldn't believe these produced in mostly shade and in such a shallow planter. Every seed planted germinated. I know they will do amazing next year when I plant them in the right conditions.

Seedlings sprouted within 4 days of sowing them!!

Great seeds always. High germination rates and beautiful produce. Low cost. That’s a win win win in my books!

Beautiful plant
