Okra is widely grown in many tropical areas. In Sierra Leone, where it is sometimes grown as a perennial, it is mainly produced for local domestic use. Many cultivars have been selected for cultivation in both temperate and tropical areas. The cultivars grown in Sierra Leone vary in plant height and in shape and color of the pod. With all the different cultivars and their variations, the particular kind of okra planted is usually a reflection of local preferences for okra as a food. The plant typically grows to 6 feet in height, but some indigenous African varieties may grow up to 12 feet tall, with a base stem of 4 inches in diameter. The leaves are lobed and are generally hairy. Some leaves may reach 11 inches in length. The plant produces dark yellow flowers that are about 2 inches in diameter. The fruit, which is the edible portion of the plant, is elongate, conical and ridged and varies in color from yellow to red to green. <br />
