Okra Clemson's Spineless (Lady's Fingers)
Botanical Name: Abelmoschus esculentus
Better known as 'Lady's Fingers', the long ornamental seed pods may be par-boiled and fried, or added to stews, soups or curries. Relatively mild, they add a very distinctive flavour to all these dishes. This variety is vigorous and produces heavy crops.
We hope you enjoy these vegetable seeds, just another great example of vegetable seeds from Mr Fothergill’s!
