Not nearly as impressed with this variety as most that I have grown, though better than Jade. It was way out produced by Burmese, Stewart\\\'s Z Best, and White Velvet. Okra was good but would get tough much more quickly than the others. It would honestly be good in a pot and for me thus far has not even approached three feet yet in a very good okra year here in Indiana. For those that prefer types similar to Clemson Spineless types this is a good variety for you.
