So I bought Geranium seeds online, didn’t realize until after that they ship from the Philippines. Grew 3 under a grow light and just put one outside a week ago and it just flowered today! Im so excited, I’ve only grown vegetables from seed before!! But then Put the pic in my plant ID app and is identified it as okra!!! [emoji17] anyone concur?
Can Sulcatas eat okra leaves, fruit, or flowers? Tortoise table says feed sparingly. So I should be ok... I wanted the Geraniums for my Koopa. IMG_5002.jpg

Definitely NOT Geranium. Most folks don’t grow geranium from seed, much easier to start from a transplant.

I’m sure a few leaves are fine....

Okra is in the mallow family, the leaves should be a very good food. Flowers can be fed sparingly too

Looks like okra to me. Cool story, actually my 15 minutes of Fame once, about ten years ago I grew an okra plant in my garden that grew 18 and a half feet tall. The local news came and did a story on it lol.

Did you order the seeds from Chernobyl? :)
Haha, no home Depot lol. I did dry some of the pods out and planted the seeds the following year but no more grew big like the first one.

Thats huge!! I feel kinda silly because 1 of the 3 I grew I intended on making it a house plant. Now I have an Okra plant in my room....
