This compact, vigorous hybrid has been specially developed for growing in pots, tubs, or on a sunny, sheltered patio. The plants remain beautifully bushy and produce an impressive crop of 15 to 20 fruits per plant.

With egg-shaped, beautiful, white with purple marbled and striped  eggplants (approx. 10 cm long, 80-100 grams). Not only a jewel for the eyes, but also a delicacy in the kitchen: the flesh is deliciously mild, silky smooth and has a refined, slightly nutty flavour. Ideal for roasting whole, grilling or stewing.
