Solanum melongena

A great variety for short season growing. High yielding plants produce slender, dark purple fruit that are 6-8″ long. Sow inside in April, 5mm-1cm deep. Keep seedlings warm, and transplant 45-60cm apart in full sun well past frost date; harden off before transplanting. Eggplants do well in greenhouses or outdoors during a hot summer. Covering outdoor seedlings with a cloche or floating row cover will help them grow. 70 days to maturity.
