NEW FOR 2026!!


Early Violet Italian Eggplant - 80 days - Naples, Italy

Solanum melongena


Highly productive sturdy plants with long, 9-11" fruits. Buttery and mild flavor makes for delicious recipes. The plants continued to bear until frost. This variety is somewhat drought tolerant and can handle full sun. At high altitude, sometimes afternoon shade can help, but these stood up in the sun.

I love the uniformity in the long fruits, and 80 days is very helpful for short seasons. If you are way up high, single cover will help, just be sure to vent.


Alright, let's make some eggplant parmigiana....


Original seed from my friends at Vibrant Earth Seed.
