Okra 'White Velvet'
(60 days)
50 seeds $3.00
HomeWhite Velvet okra is one of the best varieties we have ever grown. The spineless pods stay tender up to 6" long. They are less than 1" in diameter and nearly ridgeless. They have a fascinating silvery-greenish-white color and a velvety texture. It's a very productive variety for late summer harvest.
This wonderful American heirloom was introduced in 1890 by Peter Henderson & Company.
Sowing White Velvet Okra Seeds
