Rosa Bianca eggplant (Solanum melangena) is a 5-6" diameter round pinkish eggplant with an exceptionally mild flavor. This Italian heirloom is never bitter and has a creamy consistency prized by gourmet chefs. This variety is most productive in regions with warm nights. Eggplant is a close relative to tomatoes and potatoes and will be a prolific producer all season. Seed packet contains 400 MG (about 100 seeds).
Roasted with olive oil, grilled, breaded and fried crispy, creamy eggplant and feta dip, or the classic Eggplant Parmesan, are all delicious ways to enjoy this healthy vegetable. Large, premium seed packets give instructions on how to grow and when to plant outdoors.
Start seeds indoors 8-12 weeks before last frost. Sow seeds into flats and transplant to cells after first true leaves emerge. Harden off plants for a week before transplanting outside when daytime temperatures reach 65°. Keep soil consistently moist throughout growing season.
