Now you can grow tender, delectable Asian eggplants in a Mardi Gras assortment of colors right on the balcony, deck, or back porch! Fingerling Blend brings you three varieties from the famous “Fingers” series — compact plants with yummy fruit that can be grown in containers or the sunny garden.
These long, slender eggplants are best harvested young. At maturity they will reach 8 inches long or more, but pick them at just 4 to 7 inches for the most tender texture and delicate flavor. Nearly seedless, they are a gourmet “baby veggie” treat!
In this formula mix, you get 3 varieties from the Fingers series, renowned for its rich mellow flavor, bold color, and smaller size. You will love sampling these delectable eggplants!
Begin seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before planning to set out. Eggplant is a warm-weather crop, so wait until after danger of late spring frost before transplanting seedlings into the sunny garden or your best patio containers. In the vegetable garden, set the seedlings 12 to 14 inches apart in rows 24 to 36 inches apart. Pkt is 25 seeds.
