Clemson Spineless is a classic okra variety without thorns, prized in the South for the best gumbo and fried okra. This Southern delicacy grows well in the North too, so you can expand your taste buds anywhere. Plants set many pods, and the flowers attract hummingbirds, bees, and other beneficial insects.
