My Okra plant (Lady's Fingers) bears fruits

About two months ago I featured the Red Burgundy Okra which I found growing wild in Japan. That was in October last year and the plant was as tall as my height. The fruit was about 8 inches long.
On my return to Singapore, I took back a dried fruit with seeds inside. I sowed more than 20 seeds, a few at a time in November/December last year. Each time when the seedlings grew to about 5-6 inches tall, the seedlings would wither away. I have successfully grown two plants to about 2 feet high (in pots). One bears a small fruit, about 4 inches long and shedded most of its leaves.

This is a healthy plant which has not fruited yet.
It has two young buds.
This plant has fruited but with only two leaves.
