Red Burgundy Okra
50-64 days.

Magenta stems accent bright green leaves that become the backdrop of the desired purple pods! Lovely yellow flowers make this a plant to grow just for the flowers alone. Vigorous plants grow 3-5' tall. Pods are exceptionally uniform and can grow to 5-8". The spineless pods are just perfect when harvested at 3" long.
Excellent quality! Drought Tolerant!
