| 50 to 55 days. Compact enough to grow in containers, this Eggplant shows off its big blooms and beautiful fruits in style! Reaching 2 feet tall with good branching, Twinkle sets glossy oval fruit of deep plum-purple streaked with silver. But it's more than an ornamental beauty. Twinkle's fruit (best picked young, at 2 to 2 1/2 inches long) has superb flavor for frying, roasting, or sauteing. And the plant is spineless, so you won't scratch up your hands harvesting the fruit! Twinkle is ideal for today's smaller gardens and patio, poolside, or porch. Non-gardening guests will marvel over the huge fruit this attractive plant sets, and you'll keep your Eggplants out of the dirt and more free of bugs and other garden pests. Easy and attractive, Twinkle deserves a debut in your garden! Pkt is 15 seeds. |
