Oddly the same

The okra blossom is a beautiful yellow, once opened, but some of the buds really don’t look like they’re heading the same way.

But they’re a good fit for Becky’s SquareOdds.

Lovely new blossoms

I’m growing okra for the first time, and these blossoms, apart from being very attractive, signalled the fruit was close behind.

I’ve included them in xingfumamas Whatsoever is Lovely challenge. The plant is a type of hibiscus, which explains the blossom, and the okra really did follow very fast, with every sign it will continue flowering and fruiting.
