(85 days) Open-pollinated. When Malcolm and Delphine Beck bought their farm in 1968 in Comal County, Texas, they found in the abandoned garden giant okra stalks with the fattest pods they’d ever seen. They saved and replanted the seed, and it grew big fluted remarkably tender delicious green pods in abundance on sturdy plants. They called it the snapping okra because it snaps so easily off the plants when it is ready to harvest. Though not adapted to our climate, Beck’s will produce even in central Maine in an average growing season. Of course, it will do much better farther south. Black Benefit Sharing. ② ③
