About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A modern mini aubergine with many small, egg shaped fruits, particularly suited to pots and balconies. The compact plants ripen early and crop heavily, so you harvest well even in cooler summers. The tender, almost seedless little fruits taste best grilled whole or briefly pan fried. As an F1 hybrid it is not open pollinated, but it is vigorous and dependable in yield.
Small, tender and mildly nutty, with a thin skin and barely noticeable seeds.
