About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
An Italian heirloom variety with round, bulbous fruits in a soft pink lavender shaded with white. It grows evenly and bears abundantly in a warm greenhouse or against a sunny house wall. The creamy white flesh is considered particularly mild and barely bitter, so you do not have to salt it first. Because it is open-pollinated, you can carry your own seed on over the years.
Exceptionally mild and buttery, without the typical bitter notes of many aubergines.
