We can learn together how to make our plants thrive and healthy. Let’s share our gardening tips and experience here!

Growing red okra and red long bean in pots

At the fresh market place where I live, people usually sell the green okra pods and green long bean, so when I found someone sells some seeds of the red variants, I was eager to have them for my porch plants. They grow really fast, especially the okras. After being cooked, the red okras will turn green and the red long bean will turn purple. They both have pretty flowers too. Okras are from the same family of hibiscus plants, thus their flowers look alike. Below are some pics of them:
