This cultivar was a dissapointment. It did ok, but certainly did not measure up to the hype surrounding it. Emerald out yields it, and stays tender longer. Cajun Delight matches Clemson Spineless in becoming tought and fibrous as it gets any size. Plants are small, so may be better for container gardeners, but there are better cultivars for southern growers, who field plant. |

The plant is vigorous and prolific with a well-rounded growth habit for most of the season. At the end of the season, it sends up a rather lanky central leader. The average height of the mature plant during the season is about 4 feet. It produces firm, green, tasty fruit that keep well at room temperature for several days after harvesting, which is a very useful, but unusual, attribute for an okra cultivar. |
