We are growing okra in our garden for the first time and I have the opportunity to watch it develop from a seed to a mature plant.
Okra belongs to the Slezovi family and has been known since ancient times. It is said to be one of the oldest cultivated vegetables on earth.
It blooms in pale yellow flowers, which have dark wine-red five-pointed flowers at the bottom.
Its fruits are interesting - multi-nested pyramidal boxes that grow pointing upwards.
It is very rich in vitamins from the B group, vitamin C, E and K. The content of potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, calcium is high.
Thank you for stopping by!
