Hi, Jackie, We can not find a lot of enthusiasm for overwintering okra…but we say, try it and see what happens! Gardening is an experiment and pushing the envelope makes it fun. We would suggest cutting back too much because when you take it in, it will need to adjust to the new environment, so let it do so with most of its strength. If it has to adjust to a pruning, too, it might weaken. We hoe you get some pleasurable days from your okra!
