Cowhorn 22 Okra (aka.
Steer Horn Okra) Abelmoschus esculentus
Origin: USA
Item #: OKRA003
Cowhorn Okra, also known
as Steer's Horn Okra is a very old Southern variety of Okra that takes
its name from the horns of the Texas Longhorn steer. Though Cowhorn
Okra was once rare, it is gradually making a slow comeback.
Cowhorn is a very large Okra
variety that grows up to 6 to 7 feet in height and produces a large number
of extra large, ribbed medium-green colored pods that reach up to 12 inches
in length. The pods have a curved tip and possess a likeness to a cow's
horn, hence the name. Though the edible pods grow to such lengths and sizes,
they are best when harvested at six inch lengths which is when they are
still very tender. For the best results, the plants should actually be
topped at four feet in height, unless you don't mind climbing a ladder
to harvest them. Read more >>>
