My red okra is getting blossom.
I think their growth isn't optimal, the papaya tree cast the okra patch get shaded.
The picture above is a flower bud a day before blossom.
This is the blossom...
A beautiful flowers...
I hope it will be a great pod...
That okra flower looks stunning, what a beauty! I am always impressed that you have so many different plants.
ReplyDeleteThank you Janneke. This vegetable is popular in South East and West Asia. It popular as an ingredient in curry.
DeleteIt almost looks like an hibiscus.
ReplyDeleteYes, both of them are member of Malvaceae family.
DeleteIt's so pretty. Some vegetable plants are just as stunning as ornamentals.
ReplyDeleteThat's all right.
DeleteI have not grown the red, the green ones have a more green flower.
ReplyDeleteYes, but both of them look so beautiful.
DeleteWow, the flowers are amazing!
ReplyDeleteYes, so pretty.
DeleteOh, beautiful flowers and wonderful plant.
ReplyDeleteGreetings.
Thanks Lucia.
DeleteLovely flowers & Okra to come.
ReplyDeleteI hope they come soon
DeleteAmazing flower. All your flowers look very exotic and pretty to me.
ReplyDeleteThanks Leanan
DeleteRed Okra does have same flower colour like their green cousin! I never have planted them before!
ReplyDeleteI think the differences is only on the sepal's color. You should try this one.
DeleteI agree with some of the others - that Okra is really beautifiul. Even though I don't like eating Okra, I admire it as an ornamental plant, and that red on is very special!
ReplyDeleteYeah, the okra's taste and texture are unusual. It's not easy to make dishes from this veggie. Actually, I'm agree with you.
DeleteI love coming here and seeing your flowers!!!
ReplyDeleteA kiss.
Thanks Laura. I'm glad you enjoy it. Thank you for stopping by.
