Description:

Straight, light green pods similar to pods of Clemson Spineless. Plants are of medium height and well-branched. An heirloom from the Simpson family in Rogersville, TN that has been grown in the region at least as far back as the 1940s. Very productive for Care of the Earth Community Farm in Corryton, TN in both dry and wet years; also the most productive okra in trials at Territorial Seed Company (OR) in 2021. Care of the Earth Farm highly recommends it for market growers as it handles wet seasons significantly better than Clemson Spineless and has better flavor. 14 seeds/gram. Grown by Care of the Earth Community Farm.
