Ping Tung Eggplant

Long, slender Asian-type eggplant has shiny lavender skin that is so tender it doesn't require peeling. The creamy flesh has good flavour and is mild, rarely bitter. Plants are heavy producers of 30 cm. long and 3-4 cm. diameter fruits. Our 2010 crop outproduced any other eggplant we have grown. Named for its city of origin, Pingtung, in Taiwan.

Solanum melongena
