Rosa Bianca Eggplant (Solanum melongena)

A delectable Sicilian favorite - great for stuffing, baking, and stir-frying! Rosa Bianca yields round, ivory- and lavender-streaked fruit with a bitter-free, sweet and nutty flavor and silky texture. Best to start early and grow in the hottest summer months; cool evening temps diminish yields.
