Product information
A stunning variety of okra known for its vibrant, deep red pods. The plants themselves can reach up to 100cm, with beautiful green foliage and striking red stems. The pods are tender and have a unique, slightly sweet flavour, making them perfect for adding colour and taste to dishes like soups and stir-fries. The red colour tends to fade slightly when cooked, but the flavour remains delicious. This variety is also a lovely ornamental plant, with its yellow hibiscus-like flowers providing additional beauty to the garden. 'Red Burgundy' is heat-tolerant and thrives in warm, sunny conditions, making it a great choice for summer gardens.
