The Cow’s Horn Okra is a unique heirloom variety known for its large, curved, horn-shaped pods that can grow up to 14 inches in length. Despite their impressive size, the pods remain tender and flavorful when harvested young. This variety is particularly popular in Southern US cuisine, where it is used in gumbo, stews, soups, and frying. The plant is highly productive and can thrive even in hot, dry conditions.

Cow’s Horn Okra has a tall, vigorous growth habit and produces beautiful hibiscus-like flowers before setting pods. The plant is named after the distinctive shape of its pods, which resemble the curved horns of cattle.
