Cow Horn Okra seeds
SKU: C03407
Cow Horn Okra is a classic and unique heirloom dating back to the 1900s. This plant produces a generous amount of juicy and tender okra that average 14" long, although they tend to be best when harvested around 6-7". The name came about due to the okra fruits' length and shape resembling cow horns. Each Cow Horn Okra plant can reach an average of 7 feet tall! These can be grown in containers. Just ensure the container is at least 5 feet long. This variety is an excellent candidate for gumbo, pickling, or dipped in corn flour and fried.
