Dwarf Long Pod Okra, scientifically known as Abelmoschus esculentus, is a versatile plant highly valued for its culinary applications and aesthetic appeal. This specific variant is recognized for its compact size, growing only 3 to 4 feet tall, which makes it ideal for small gardens or container cultivation. It yields long, slim pods that are typically harvested when they reach 4 to 6 inches in length.

The tender texture and subtle taste of Dwarf Long Pod Okra pods make them highly sought after in various dishes like gumbos, stews, and stir-fries. To maintain their quality, it is recommended to harvest the pods when they are young and tender to prevent them from becoming tough. Regular harvesting promotes continuous pod production throughout the growing period. By providing proper care and attention, Dwarf Long Pod Okra can flourish and become a fruitful addition to any garden.

How to Save Seeds 

Usually self pollinating however can occur within less than 1 mile. So proceed with caution on planting more than one variety. Let pods harden on stalk; they will become woody and then seeds are ready. Simply take them off pod and crack open for getting seeds out for saving.
