Origins, Migration, and History of Domestication
Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) is an old crop of African origin, with the species generally traced to northeastern Africa, especially the Ethiopia–Sudan region, before spreading through North Africa, the Middle East, India, and the Mediterranean world. From there, okra traveled widely through trade, migration, and the forced movement of African peoples across the Atlantic, becoming deeply rooted in the foodways of the American South.

The most famous and widely available red okra. Tender low-spine pods are produced in abundance. Great for raw use (okra straight off the plant is the best way to eat it!) or cooked in most application, though in many preparations the color fades to green (another reason to eat it raw!).

The Red Burgundy okra (also known as Burgundy okra) is a striking variety of okra that is well-loved for its ornamental beauty and culinary uses. The Red Burgundy okra produces deep, vibrant burgundy-colored pods that stand out among the green foliage. The pods are slender, ribbed, and grow to about 6-8 inches long, though they're often harvested when shorter (around 3-4 inches) for the best texture and flavor. The plant itself features attractive burgundy stems and large, pale-yellow flowers with a maroon center, adding a decorative touch to gardens. The plants can grow to be around 4 to 5 feet tall, giving them a stately presence in a vegetable garden.

The pods of Red Burgundy okra are tender and flavorful when harvested young. They can be used in:

    • Gumbo and stews: A classic ingredient in Creole and Cajun cooking.
    • Frying: Breaded and fried for a crunchy snack or side.
    • Pickling: Preserved in brine for a tangy treat.
    • Grilling and roasting: The pods hold up well to high heat, bringing out their natural sweetness.

Growing Conditions:

Red Burgundy okra thrives in well-draining, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.5). Like most okra varieties, it requires full sun (6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily) to grow properly. Okra is drought-tolerant but does best with regular watering, especially during hot weather. Okra is a warm-season crop, and Red Burgundy okra particularly thrives in hot, humid climates. It can tolerate heat very well but is sensitive to frost.

Okra pods should be harvested when they are 3-4 inches long for the best flavor and tenderness. If left on the plant too long, they become tough and fibrous. Frequent harvesting encourages continuous production.

The Red Burgundy variety is not only prized for its beauty and flavor but also for its adaptability to a wide range of growing conditions, making it an excellent choice for home gardeners looking to add some color to their vegetable garden.

Alba packaging stinks
Style: SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Complete waste of money! I ended up tossing it out because it’s IMPOSSIBLE to use. You should be able to twist the top to lock/unlock and spray it. NOPE. The top just spins and doesn’t catch or you cannot twist it at all. It’s also virtually impossible to spray. I had to hold it against my torso and press with both thumbs to get it to spray. Meanwhile, it’s leaking, the bottle is getting slippery. And then the spray goes EVERYWHERE, it’s not a narrow spray but it’s as if you’re dusting crops. I tried to see if it needed a certain pressure point, two fingers, bloody hell it’s not a Magic Mouse you should be able to unlock and spray it with one hand. Anyway, Alba needs to do some QC on their packaging. The last pump lotion I got, the pump also did not work. It just spun and spun and could not be unlocked. I had to wash and reuse the pump from an old bottle.

Best sunscreen brand! Fair, sensitive-skinned and rely on this
Style: SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Alba Botanica is my favorite brand for sunscreen products and it checks all the boxes on my list: Excellent long lasting coverage, fine mist spray and easy coverage cream versions, great for my sensitive skin (no breakouts- I do NOT use it on my face though), the Hawaiian fragrance is pleasant, it’s reef safe (a big one for me as a snorkel/dive aficionado), and organic ingredients. The large size lasts 5 full days when on a boat all day in the Carribbean, and I only apply it twice (once in morning, and again midday.) I have fair skin, and I never burn. The spray version is, by nature of its aerosol capacity, a bit drying on the skin, but this is to be expected, and it creates a long lasting barrier. The cream version is a wonderful emollient, although not quite as long lasting. Best deal is only in the summer season at CostCo for a 2 pack... in my searches, Amazon has the best deal otherwise.

GREAT FOR ADULTS TOO!
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This isn't just a great sunscreen for kids, it also works great for adults too. I've used this on my face under my makeup for years and it doesn't make me break out. I've tested many facial sunscreens and none of them go on as smoothly as this one. A lot of them aren't moist enough to spread out on the skin, but this one is very moist and I don't need to use a lot of it for coverage. Facial sunscreens can be pricey, but this Kids Sunscreen is under $10 and is a great value. It has a subtle, delicate scent and that's another plus for me. When it's on my face, I don't notice it. I avoid overpowering scents in all my facial products.
