Okra has such pretty flowers. The impressive plants are waist-high and showing no signs of stopping any time soon.

    Very pretty. I love okra when I had a garden I always planted okra.

      I only grew it one other time and that was several years ago.

    I love how pretty okra plants are. I am growing a red variety (I’d have to look up the name, maybe Jing Orange?) that is stunning. It has red stalks and reddish tinted leaves. The okra fruit is red. I am going to grow this variety in my flower garden, since it is so pretty.

      OOH I would love to see the red one!!! I would still plant that if I had seed for it. I will definitely table it for next year.

        I will post a picture of it so you can see it. 🙂

                It is beautiful. I can’t wait to get my seeds and get some plants started!

      I just ordered seed for the red. I may not get fruit this late, but seeing the plants will be really fun. I bet they are gorgeous!!

        The plants and flowers are beautiful! It is worth growing just for the plants.

        1. Vero Avatar

          That was my idea too.

    I have never seen Okra flowers before, Vero.
    Best wishes, Pete.

      I had only seen them once and it was several years ago. I decided to grow some this year even though I don’t like okra. The plants are gorgeous!

    I never knew okra had such a pretty bloom.

      I remembered seeing it in my neighbors garden years ago. I grew it just to see the flowers.
