Many of my customers think of this size and shape as their pick for eggplant. They grow well. And even better, they are delicious! Great for all your eggplant recipes!
if you only have room to grow one eggplant this is the one. I have grown many types of eggplant over the years and I have never found one that grows so well and produces loads of beautiful eggplants. Everyone that I have given eggplants to has always wanted to know what variety it is and where to get it, because they thought it was the best they ever tried.
Irene eggplant has got to be the healthiest and most productive eggplant that I grow. The fruit are always beautiful and tasty. I also love all your radicchio offerings.....
Strong plants and heavy producer. Smaller, with excellent flavor and fine texture - not at all spongy - when compared to supermarket varieties.
