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 >>>
