I didn't mention in the article, but this is another one that I'll be growing here in my garden, for the first time, this year. We eat a LOT of okra so I'm really hoping to hone in on some varieties that we like the best. Last year, our first year with the garden, we planted just a single variety and I have no idea what it even was. We just bought some okra plants, put them in the ground, and ate what came out. This year, with pretty much everything, I'm trying to be a little more conscious about what varieties we're growing, and hope to use this forum to share my experiences with each so that, if nothing else, I'll have my own reference from year to year on what worked best for us or, more importantly, what didn't work.
Anyways, that will start with these three okra, which is really the only thing (other than straight 8 cucumbers) that are definite varieties going into the ol' garden. I hope they're all good ones so we can stick to these every year from here on out.
