Hill Country Red okra grows on 5 to 6 foot plants with burgundy-colored stalks and pale yellow, hibiscus-like flowers. The pods develop once the blossoms fall away, and grow straight up like corn. Pods are generally harvested under 5 inches long, with the ideal size being around 3 inches. The pods are much wider than other varieties and are light green with maroon highlights and streaks, often clustered around the tips and tops of the pods. Longer pods may be more bronze-colored than green. The red-stemmed pods are said to have a more traditional okra taste.
Okra is botanically related to cotton, cacao, and hibiscus. This heirloom variety is named for the “Hill Country” of southern Texas, which is home to a varied agriculture with vineyards and farms. This region of Texas is known for its limestone hills. 10+ seeds... Thank You for your interest.
