| EGGPLANT
(Solanum melongena, S. gilo, S. integrifolium) 25-35 seeds per packet. We offer the best selection of quality heirloom eggplants in the USA. Days to maturity are based on transplants, and are approximate. Most species are from India or Africa, which indicates these plants love heat. Start indoors 8-12 weeks before last frost. Surface-sow and keep moist until sprouts appear, which can take up to three weeks or so. Transplant into the garden when weather has settled and soil is warm. Provide rich soil and ample moisture.

Edirne Purple Striped
New!
Originally collected in Edirne, Turkey, in 1948, and stored by the
USDA ever since, until we grew it out this summer! Gorgeous 6-8
inch fruits are richly striped in purple and off-white. Superior to
Listada de Gandia in appearance due to its deeper luster, and
actually preferred over it in our 2008 trials! Vigorous plants were
very productive.
