Everwilde Farms - 1 oz Organic Clemson Spineless Okra Seeds - Gold Vault Bulk Seed Packet

Clemson spineless is the most popular variety of okra on the market! The vigorous 5-foot plants produce uniform, straight pods that are spineless, making harvest easier! It can be served fried, cooked, or pickled. This variety is very prolific and high yielding, maturing in about 55 days. As the name suggests, Clemson Spineless okra was developed by the horticultural research department of Clemson University in South Carolina. Introduced in 1939, it immediately won an AAS award in that same year. Originally, okra comes from northern Africa, where it still grows wild. This unusual member of the hibiscus family still has an important part in African and Mediterranean cuisine, as well as being a culinary tradition in the American South.
