    (50 days). This vigorous, dark green hybrid okra, an All-America Selections winner, produces high yields and stays tender even when large. Testers who like growing and eating okra appreciated the more compact growth, beautiful flowers, and consistent yields.

    This hybrid was not a great performer for me. Pods were okay, but yield was less than Clemson Spineless
