This is another pack of the same eggplant seeds I grew this summer. They did so well, that I had to be sure to get one, just in case. It was the ONLY heirloom type thst I grew from seed this cool spring/summer that actually put on fruit. The benefit of the eggplants being so small is that they are more plentiful, and the more you pick off a plant, usually the more energy can be put back into making more. Kind of the same idea as smaller cherry tomatoes grow more bountiful than giant 2 lb slicers. Definitely plant indoors early to give a head start on the deason as eggplant generally are the slowest thing in my garden, but relatively faster growing to production than all the other kinds in my 9b/10a SF Bay Area coastal city.
