Red lady finger starts to bloom












Okra or lady finger is a nutritious vegetable with an array of health benefits. 

It is rich in magnesium, folate, Vitamin C, K1 and Vitamin A. It consists of antioxidants and dietary fiber.

Okra is very beneficial to pregnant women and kids. 

I am very eager to grow the red okra variety in terrace garden. I bought okra seeds from various online stores yielding red or burgundy coloured okras since last year. but all seeds gave green okras only. This time, I got the red variety seeds and I observe the plant is growing tall about 4 feet and start developing the burgundy colour flower buds. 

The stem is also the same color.
