Okra Seeds - Perkins Long Pod

Abelmoschus esculentus More okra per pod! For the grower and eater who are planning to slice up large coins to fry or stew, this variety produces big, bright green pods that stay tender a long time. Plants grow four to six feet tall, harvest when pods are six inches long. Originally from West Africa, okra runs in the blood of many Southerners for whom summer is not complete without a plate of gumbo, lightly battered fried okra or a side of pickled pods.
