These shots were taken over the last two days of blossoms on my two okra plants. Okra blooms only last one day after which they shrivel only to be replaced by the edible seed pod. The variety of my plants is called "Burgundy". The main stem, leaves and fruit have a unique burgundy coloration. Taste is excellent but I only planted two plants which don't produce enough seed pods quickly enough for a meal. Next fall I will plant more. Enjoy.

Nice, Bubba!

Okra is all in the preparation. Most people cook it until it's slimy. Dont even try the canned stuff 😖. My mom put whole pods (soaked in salt water first) in with veggies in a pork roast at the last minute so they just blanched. They have a delicate flavor.
