Jilo Morro Redondo Brazilian Eggplant

$ 3.99

One of the two predominant types of jilo (eggplant) found in Brazilian cuisine.  Jilo Morro Redondo, translated "round hill", is typically harvested while still green and may be fried or used in main dishes and soups.  Sautéed jilo and onions are also a popular snack in parts of Brazil.  Large plants can reach up to 5 feet tall, producing tremendous amounts of fruit over a single season.  Left on the plant, the dark green fruit will turn orange and finally red once fully ripened. Seed for this variety was generously provided by the USDA National Genetic Resources Program (NGRP).  70-75 days to maturity. Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds.

Got the seeds,planted them, nothing

I got the seeds,I planted them, been over 2weeks, nothing has happen.

Thank you for your review, Anthony. Jilo Redondo can be a bit tricky to germinate. They like a bit of bottom heat, not too wet of soil, and they can be a little slow to start, even under the best conditions. We'll be in touch about a refund or replacement, but in the meantime, I'd recommend holding onto your starts for just a bit longer. They may well sprout given a little more time.
