FEATURD EGGPLANT OFFERINGS FOR 2024
PURPLE COMET – NEW!
70 days from transplant, hybrid, Asian-type
Strong upright plants produce big yields of long-fruited Asian type eggplant. Purple Comet’s substantial fruits can reach 10” long and 1.5 to 2” diameter, but they are equally delicious when picked young. The firm white flesh is bitter-free, seed development is slow, and the rich violet skin is thin and tender. Plants are robust, with extra-large, tropical-looking foliage and showy purple flowers, and beautiful purple fruits.
PURPLE PICKLING – NEW!
90 days from transplant, OP, Italian
This pear-shaped Italian heirloom variety is traditionally used to make eggplant relishes like Caponata, but is equally suited to grilling, roasting, and baking and stewing. Fruits up to 8″ long are borne in abundance on purple-stemmed, thornless plants.
