“Aunt Hettie’s Red” okra is said to be a Tennessee heirloom, “grown and saved by Great Aunt Hettie Jane Tidwell [b. 1918, d. 1998].”
Aunt Hettie’s Red is a VERY showy and beautiful okra in both the plant and the pods. The plants get quite tall, even when grown in a pot, as I grew mine this year. The pods can also get quite large. Both the pods and the plant stems are a glowing red that can be seen from across the yard. I have read that Aunt Hettie’s Red was a “Top 10 finisher in 2018 okra taste test (out of 60) and top tasting red from the same taste test.” I do not know where the test was held, or by whom though. I have to agree, this is one of my favorite reds, better than Jing Orange and right up there with another favorite, Bowling Red. LIMITED STOCK – One packet per order please.
