This is a little off topic, but once you decide on the variety why don't you plant a couple of extra plants and give her okra year round. Okra freezes well. Just pick as normal, wash and dry the pods with the ends on, spread in a single layer on a cookie sheet and place in the freezer. When the okra is frozen store in a gallon freezer bag in the freezer until needed for boiling, frying or soups and stews. Claud
