EG424A - Piccolo
The glossy skin of this purple and white striped eggplant covers firm flesh that is perfect for both stuffing and pickling. The fruits are plump and oval, about 8x10cm (3x4”) in size, with great charm and appeal. The parthenocarpic plants produced by Piccolo eggplant seeds are vigorous and productive over a very long season in the open field or greenhouse, and they have a good shelf life. This was another eggplant we trialed in the field with fantastic results. The plants were immensely productive, and the tasty fruits just kept on coming. The hybrid seeds aren't cheap, but the quality is incredible.
