Hi everyone. I got my seeds recently online from EDEN SEEDS. all pure and non hybrid. Very excited because they have sprouted this week after a couple of weeks being planted if that. Just been outside planting more seeds LOL. I'm on the Sunshine coast inland. 23 degree days 13 nights.

Hi Edna, Good to hear from you. I'm currently looking a way I can succeed in planting Okra at my place in Brisbane North, would you be kind to supply me with some seeds and share some tips on way forward? Looking forward to hearing. Kind Regards, Bennet
