Origins, Migration, and History of Domestication
Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) is an old crop of African origin, with the species generally traced to northeastern Africa, especially the Ethiopia–Sudan region, before spreading through North Africa, the Middle East, India, and the Mediterranean world. From there, okra traveled widely through trade, migration, and the forced movement of African peoples across the Atlantic, becoming deeply rooted in the foodways of the American South.

The most famous and widely available red okra. Tender low-spine pods are produced in abundance. Great for raw use (okra straight off the plant is the best way to eat it!) or cooked in most application, though in many preparations the color fades to green (another reason to eat it raw!).

The Red Burgundy okra (also known as Burgundy okra) is a striking variety of okra that is well-loved for its ornamental beauty and culinary uses. The Red Burgundy okra produces deep, vibrant burgundy-colored pods that stand out among the green foliage. The pods are slender, ribbed, and grow to about 6-8 inches long, though they're often harvested when shorter (around 3-4 inches) for the best texture and flavor. The plant itself features attractive burgundy stems and large, pale-yellow flowers with a maroon center, adding a decorative touch to gardens. The plants can grow to be around 4 to 5 feet tall, giving them a stately presence in a vegetable garden.

The pods of Red Burgundy okra are tender and flavorful when harvested young. They can be used in:

    • Gumbo and stews: A classic ingredient in Creole and Cajun cooking.
    • Frying: Breaded and fried for a crunchy snack or side.
    • Pickling: Preserved in brine for a tangy treat.
    • Grilling and roasting: The pods hold up well to high heat, bringing out their natural sweetness.

Growing Conditions:

Red Burgundy okra thrives in well-draining, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.5). Like most okra varieties, it requires full sun (6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily) to grow properly. Okra is drought-tolerant but does best with regular watering, especially during hot weather. Okra is a warm-season crop, and Red Burgundy okra particularly thrives in hot, humid climates. It can tolerate heat very well but is sensitive to frost.

Okra pods should be harvested when they are 3-4 inches long for the best flavor and tenderness. If left on the plant too long, they become tough and fibrous. Frequent harvesting encourages continuous production.

The Red Burgundy variety is not only prized for its beauty and flavor but also for its adaptability to a wide range of growing conditions, making it an excellent choice for home gardeners looking to add some color to their vegetable garden.

Do not trust sizing or measuents
Color: Black, Size: 32W x 30L
Sizing way off. Can barely fit on and no where close to buttoning. Same pant measurements in another pant bought at the same time no problem. Sizing and measurements off.

real leather, comfortable, size up 1/2 size to avoid the breaking in process, its beautifully made!
Size: 10.5, Color: Medium Natural Nubuck
They fit perfectly. They are the best pair of shoes My husband's ever wore! the smell of that new leather is incredible. It is real leather, not imitation leather. It's a little tight across the top portion of his foot right before his toes start, but I believe that can be stretched out, they just have to be broken in. they are so classy and snazzy. The front of the toe part is a little darker than the rest. But it Kind of blends in fades into the rest of the leather. It will scratch easily. So you have to be careful, it's real leather. It's soft but not like felt soft and its shiny. This is the kind of shoe you actually need The old school shoe Polish in a buffer cloth. I didn't think that we would like or he would like the white soul but it does not look bad like I thought it would be. It does not stand out. It blends right in perfectly with the shoe. Any of their color would have not matched. If you're on the fence about this nice dress, you don't be. this name Shoe actually lives up to its reputation. It was incredible and no, I'm not just saying that. if it sucked, I would say so. it's a great shoe in every way. It has a cushioned soft leather insole. It's a little thinner piece of velour feeling leather In the instep. It is such a great shoe definitely worth the purchase. The size does fit. He wears a 10 and a 1/2. That's what we got, and that fits perfectly. I think he could have gotten 11 and got away with it, so he wouldn't have to break the top portion in. But there's plenty of toe room, it's just where your outer edge of your foot an the bone, right before your big toe, so like I said, right across the widest portion of your foot needs to be stretched out broken in. once he breaks that in the shoe fits perfectly. so you can size up half a size you probably can get away with it, just fine God bless!

High quality comfortable shoes from Rockport
Size: 13 Wide, Color: Grey Nubuck, Size: 13 Wide, Color: Grey Nubuck
I've been a fan of Rockport shoes since buying my first pair in the 1980's. I actually still have that pair and had them resoled once. This shoe has the style and profile of a dress shoe but is finished in a nice smooth suede-like grey color. Typical of Rockport shoes, they are flexible and lightweight. The upper is genuine leather, something getting harder to find in reasonably priced quality shoes. That should make these more durable than artificial leather. The insole is sculpted and soft with just a bit of memory foam padding with good arch support. They are removable and I assume replaceable. The soles are flexible and grippy, and the heel is low and comfortable. I ordered my usual size, 13W and they fit well, just a tiny bit tight on the top where they lace if wearing thick socks until they stretch a bit. Due to the shape of the toe box they look a little long, but there is plenty of toe space. These were very comfortable, true to size, well made and very nice looking shoes. I expect them to be durable and last a long time as all of my other Rockport shoes have in the past. These would look great with jeans or khaki's or even with more dressy clothing, they can be casual or dressy. Even though these are well made and genuine leather with Rockport's reputation for comfort and quality they cost less than many sneakers.

Rockport makes great shoe wear
Size: 11.5 Wide, Color: Dark Taupe Suede
I have owned Rockport shoes before and this pair lives up to the brand’s reputation for comfort. Right out of the box they felt broken in with very little adjustment period. The genuine leather upper looks nice and gives the shoe a more polished appearance than many casual options while still being comfortable enough for daily wear. The cushioning is one of the strongest features. The truTECH system does a good job absorbing impact and provides noticeable comfort during long days on my feet. The removable insoles add versatility and make it easy to customize the fit or use orthotics if needed. The quality appears very good with clean stitching and solid construction throughout. The leather feels durable and should age well with normal use. Ease of use is excellent since they slip on easily and require very little maintenance beyond occasional cleaning and conditioning. Size was accurate for me and the availability of different widths is a major advantage. Compatibility with different foot shapes is often overlooked but Rockport does a good job here. Value for money is strong considering the comfort quality and durability. Overall these are comfortable well-made shoes that work equally well for the office casual outings or everyday wear.
