Red Burgundy Okra Heirloom Seed

**Product Description:**

Welcome to Todd's Seeds, where we offer a wide range of premium heirloom seeds for your gardening pleasure. Our Red Burgundy Okra Heirloom Seeds are a wonderful addition to your garden, providing you with delicious and nutritious okra that is both beautiful and flavorful. Whether you're an experienced gardener or just starting, these seeds will bring the unique taste and vibrant color of homegrown Red Burgundy Okra to your table.

**Planting Instructions:**

* **Soil Preparation:** Choose a well-drained, fertile soil for planting. Red Burgundy Okra thrives in warm, well-drained soil. Work compost or organic matter into the soil to enhance its fertility.

* **Planting Time:** Sow the seeds directly into the garden after the last frost date when the soil has warmed up. Okra loves warm weather and requires temperatures above 50°F (10°C) to grow successfully.

* **Sowing:** Plant the seeds 1 inch deep and space them 12 to 18 inches apart in rows. Okra plants can grow tall, so provide enough space between them.

* **Watering:** Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells. Okra requires regular watering to produce tender pods.

* **Support:** As the okra plants grow, they may benefit from staking or support to prevent them from toppling over in strong winds.

* **Harvesting:** Red Burgundy Okra is ready to harvest when the pods are about 3-4 inches long and still tender. Harvest frequently to encourage continuous production.

**Health Benefits:**

Red Burgundy Okra offers numerous health benefits:

1. **Low in Calories:** Okra is a low-calorie vegetable, making it a great addition to a balanced diet.

2. **Rich in Fiber:** It is a good source of dietary fiber, which promotes digestive health and helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

3. **Vitamins and Minerals:** Okra is rich in vitamin C, vitamin K, and various minerals, including potassium and magnesium.

4. **Antioxidants:** It contains antioxidants that help protect your cells from oxidative stress.
