Amazing Okra!

My goodness how big these have grown! I get a bowlful of Okra every morning, without fail! Great stuff. We love it barbecued or in stir fries. Casseroles are wonderful too as the kids can't see it, and it is great as it replaces flour based thickeners perfectly. By far the best 'crop' I have had from the garden, and a very long season too! It has been fruiting for months. It is a very low maintenance plant too, just a feed of liquid fertiliser every now and then. It also needed a good tying/ staking up through the flood. You should give it a try. Even if you hate okra, grow it for the gorgeous hibiscusy flowers, it's ornamental value, it's height. You can always give away/ donate the okra! I have just put in two of the red variety in too. Purely for height, as I hate looking at fence, and it's stunning ornamental-ness, the fruit is just a bonus!
