Louisiana green velvet okra seeds

duajones · February 20, 2008

I want to grow this variety this year and am not sure where to get seeds. Of the two places I found them online, one is out of stock and the other has a questionable reputation. Any ideas?

Duajones, looks like www.seedsofchange.com still has seed for LGV.

I have been real happy with Clemson Spinless for years. Big problem you almost need to come home for lunch to pick them and that afternoon they are to big.

Thanks Shelley, never heard of them before

Gosh darnoodley! I had Green Velvet on my want list but neglected to look for it when I put together my order for SOC.

Maybe next year.

Got my seeds in and prepared the bed yesterday. Ready to plant!

You might want to hold off planting them. Okra like hot weather.

The plan is to plant sow them in Early April like I did last year
