I have some okra seeds from my friend and he told me this is a long variety. The okra are still nice and tender when they're 20 cm long. Send me a prepaid envelope and I can share these seeds. Liiiz.tw@gmail. com

Hi Liz, I'm wondering if you still have the seeds for the long okra to share? I've been searching online for seeds of the long okra since Dec when I was given some fresh ones from a friend and was delighted that it tasted so good. Will send a prepaid envelope when I hear back from you. Thanks again
