This delectable Italian heirloom eggplant is known for its beauty as well as its culinary features. The plump, 10-15cm (4-6") fruits are globular and bi-coloured in a gradient. Like a work of art, their ivory canvases are covered in broad, violet/purple brushstrokes. The mildly sweet flesh is meaty, with no bitterness. Plants are more productive when overnight temperatures are warmer. They have tall stems but plants are fairly compact relative to fruit size. Delicious stewed, grilled, or stuffed.
CERTIFIED ORGANIC. Slender, deep purple fruit with thin skin and mildly sweet flesh. The 15cm (6") fruits have very few seeds and grow in clusters. Best harvested young when skins are glossy, the tender fruits cook quickly and are also suitable for pickling. This early and productive eggplant is adapted for year-round growing and is a good choice for container growing.
