Grown organically in Alabama at Sweet Martha’s Family Farmacy
A rare, Southern‑loved heirloom, Pink Okra grows tall, strong, and generous — offering tender pods with a rosy blush and hibiscus‑like blooms that turn heads. These starters are grown slowly and intentionally in Alabama soil, rooted in the same traditions that kept okra thriving across Black Southern gardens for generations.
Each plant is raised outdoors in real conditions, not rushed under artificial lights, so it transitions beautifully into your home garden, raised bed, or container.
