Description

African okra is crunchy with a mild, fresh herbaceous flavor similar to the taste of asparagus and artichoke.
African okra is a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, manganese, folate, calcium, magnesium, and fiber, and also contains potassium, phosphorus, and copper.
Water – Full-grown plants can use 8 mm of water per day.
Soil – Grows well in many soil types, but prefers well drained sandy loams with a pH between 6-7 and high content of organic matter.
Sunlight – Full sun African okra grows in the humid tropics between 12N and 12S. It is not suited to semi-arid areas outside of this range.
Temperature – Does not tolerate cooler temperatures.
Pests – African Okra is generally resistant to pests and disease, but large scale production can encourage crickets, flea beetles, cotton bollworm and powdery mildew. Crop rotation, destroying diseased plants, and spraying with pyrethroids can decrease pest pressure.
