The flowers of the okra plant are beautiful!

What variety is that? I have only planted clemson spineless (if it is not broke, don’t fix it and heirloom to boot). Clemson spineless has yellow blossoms with ruby throat, but same beauty - I wonder if I read one time that okra is kin to hibiscus. Might also be related to cotton.

I always thought Okra blossoms resembled Cotton blooms...
