When Malcolm and Delphine Beck bought their farm in 1968 in Comal County, Texas, they found in the abandoned garden giant okra stalks with the fattest pods they’d ever seen. They saved and replanted the seed, and it grew big fluted remarkably tender delicious green pods in abundance on sturdy plants. They called it the snapping okra because it snaps so easily off the plants when it is ready to harvest.

Plants can easily reach 6-8 feet tall. Young pods (3 in. or less) easily snap off the plant when ready to harvest.

An excellent option for Texas gardeners!


Contains 20 heirloom seeds 

Planting Instructions:  Prior to planting, soak okra seeds for 12-18 hours.  Seeds should be sown in warm conditions, covered very lightly (depth of ½ inch) and kept reasonably moist until seedlings emerge.
