Fengyuan Purple Eggplant
25 Seeds
(Solanum melongena) Originating from Taiwan, this unique heirloom produces slender, dark purple fruit reaching 12-16" long. Creamy, white flesh does not get bitter and thin, tender skins do not require peeling. A popular variety for restaurants. 75 days to harvest. 25 seeds per packet.
CULTURE: Sow seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost. Germination will be improved by using a grower's heat mat. Transplant outdoors once soil temps have reached 60 degrees. Space transplants 18-24” apart in rows 36” apart. Harvest fruit while skin is still glossy and tender.
