I've never grown okra in a container, but Okra is a shallow rooting plant and they should do well. But, I can't imagine more than three or four plants per bucket. I don't like the dwarf varieties because many of them are not so "dwarfish". Clemson Spineless is the best I've grown and it's in my garden every year.

Just remember that they like lots of sun and will be sluggish growing until the temperatures come up. When their world gets nice and warmed up, they go crazy.
