Egg plant about the same.
Okra is one of the few plants that thrive in hot weather, it does not like the cold.
One time I had the TV turned up too loud and the okra heard the freeze/frost forecast and fell over dead before it even got cold.
Just looked you seem to be about like where I live in Texas in the winter.

Thanks worth, yes i'm in a hot temperate zone.....winters are very mild, no frost. I did grow okra last year for the first time (from purchased seedlings) and they were great in the heat. They are not common down under but I like them, very tasty!
Thanks again!
