okra plant seed Hill Country Red Okra – Truelove SeedsThese plump, red and green pods have a rich, delicious okra flavor. In my field, they grew to above average heights of 8 feet tall on thick, deep red stems, and produced for months! Hill Country Red Okra is said to have originated in the eastern portion of the mostly limestone Edwards Plateau in west central Texasalso known as Texas Hill Country. This area has a large German population and influence, which meant they opposed secession from the Union

These plump, red and green pods have a rich, delicious okra flavor. In my field, they grew to above average heights of 8-feet tall on thick, deep-red stems, and produced for months! Hill Country Red Okra is said to have originated in the eastern portion of the mostly limestone Edwards Plateau in west-central Texas—also known as Texas Hill Country. This area has a large German population and influence, which meant they opposed secession from the Union during the Civil War, and also meant introducing the accordion to Tejano music. Okra is probably from West Africa, though some claim Ethiopia as the origin. Many believe enslaved Africans hid okra seeds in their hair on the forced journey across the Atlantic. Certainly, this crop is a taste of home for people of the African Diaspora. My partner Chris (another Truelove Seeds farmer based at the Sankofa Farm at Bartram's Garden) is from Mississippi and is an okra fanatic. This is his favorite variety hands-down, but cannot commit to growing only one type, so I isolated this crop to produce true seed.

Days to maturity: 60-70

Seeds per pack: 40

Germination rate: 93% on 10/01/2025

Planting / harvesting notes

Sow seeds of this heat-loving plant indoors 2-3 weeks before transplanting, which should happen several weeks after the last frost, or when soil temperatures stay above 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Soak seeds overnight for quicker germination, and plant 3/4" deep. Space 18" in rows 12-18" apart. Beds should be at least 3' apart as plants tend to bush out widely. Okra likes fertile, well-drained soil with added compost.

We harvest and eat this okra when the pods are 2-3" long and still tender. You can harvest it up to 5-6", but may find them a bit woody. Can be eaten red or green! When growing new varieties of okra, we encourage harvesting at all different stages until you get a sense of the best size for eating. We even eat them raw in the field as a test!


Seed keeping notes

Okra is insect pollinated. Isolate different okra varieties by at least 1/8th of a mile (or up to 1/2 mile if you are truly concerned about seed purity) to avoid unwanted cross pollination. Allow pods to grow large and turn brown and woody (your neighbors may look at you funny). When you can hear the seeds rattle, harvest the pod and allow it to dry further on trays in the sun in a dry place. Remove seeds and use breath, wind, or fans to remove bits of chaff.

I'm been using this make up remover for years!
Style: Original, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
I’ve been using Neutrogena Makeup Remover for a while now, and it does an amazing job at removing makeup quickly and easily. It takes off everything—even waterproof mascara—without needing to rub too hard. What I really like is how gentle it feels on my skin. It doesn’t leave any irritation or greasy residue, and my face feels clean and refreshed after using it. It’s also super convenient, especially the wipes they’re perfect for travel or those nights when you’re too tired for a full routine. The only downside is that the wipes can dry out if the package isn’t sealed properly, so make sure to close it tightly. Overall, a reliable and effective makeup remover that I always keep on hand!

Not good for sensitive skin
Style: Original, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
Not great for sensitive skin. But great for cleaning brushes or removing makeup if you have nothing else. Left my sensitive skin burning.

Gentle on my skin, tough at removing makeup.
Style: Original, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
I've tried many different kinds of makeup remover wipes in my day, but I've never used these Neutrogena ones. As I was looking for some wipes to try out (as I'd recently used up all the ones I had), I decided to ordered the Neutrogena ones. These packs came very well presented, and were in excellent condition. I appreciate that the wipes were wrapped in a plastic-type wrap, which protected them from the elements. The wipes feel so soft and gentle on my skin; each cloth wipe feels durable, and is great at removing stuck-on makeup. These not only remove makeup very well, but they leave my skin feeling soft and hydrated. I've not had any issues with irritations while using on my skin, and there's also no fragrance to the wipes (which may be of some importance to certain people). I love that these wipes are made from plant-based materials, and they are compostable. The cloths feel durable yet lightweight, and have plenty of essence on each wipe. Additionally, these packs of wipes are convenient got on-the-go purposes. I'm really happy with these Neutrogena makeup remover wipes, and feel they're of excellent quality and value. I feel these are a good value because this came with 2 packs (each with 25 wipes), and one wipe can do a lot. At the time of my purchase (and review), these wipes were listed at around $7.98; I personally think this is a very nice deal, and would definitely consider ordering them again. I also would highly recommend these to others.

Perfect Facial Wipes
Style: Original, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
These are great for washing makeup off if, like me, you cannot use soap on your face. They are convenient to use; just pull from the package. They are moist and leave your skin clean and smelling fresh. These wipes do not irritate my skin or leave an oily residue. I have used them for year and always have a pack in my makeup area.
