Description
Emerald okra is an early producer, with distinctive slender pods that grow up to 8″ long. Originally developed by Campbell Soup Company, it is delicious in soups and stews.
Plant outdoors in late spring after the soil has completely warmed. Start indoor three weeks before last frost date. Okra thrives in hot weather and fertile soil, with consistent light watering. Do not over water. Pick okra every two to three days, when pods reach about 6″ long. Older pods are tough.
