55 days. NON-GMO, OPEN POLLINATED, HEIRLOOM

Jade okra was developed by the University of Arkansas and released around 1991. That wouldn't make it an heirloom, but it is an open pollinated variety and properly pollinated you can keep seed from it to replant next year. 

Jade is known for being an early maturing okra that is extremely high yielding and tender. This okra does extremely well in late plantings compared to other okra.

Compared to 'Clemson Spineless', 'Jade' has darker green pods, fewer side branches, higher average yields, and better ability to mature in late plantings. Plants average 4-1/2' tall and the straight, dark-green pods remain tender to 6". Recommended especially for home gardens, farmer's markets, and late plantings.
