Description

An excellent eggplant for outdoor use that is harvested completely green. It has a pleasantly fleshy, typical eggplant flavor. With fruit weights of up to 300g, the eggplants are relatively large for outdoor cultivation. The plants remain healthy for a long time and therefore produce abundant yields. The plants have very large, light green leaves and are practically unaffected by potato beetles.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

You should grow eggplants in nutrient-rich soil in a sunny, warm location. To prevent the plants from bending, you can tie them up. As with tomatoes, side shoots should be removed by breaking them off directly at the base. From time to time, it is worth removing some of the fruit shoots so that the remaining fruit ripens better.
