Rosa Bianca Eggplant
From Hudson Valley Seed Company. Purchased in 2023.
Description and growing instructions below from Hudson Valley Seeds.
Elegant eggplant with excellent flavor and texture.
Grow Rosa Bianca for its beauty: its softball-sized, rounded, only slightly elongated fruit are spectacular. Or, grow it for its taste: it is among the most delicately flavored of eggplants, custard-like and not at all bitter when fully roasted. Whatever your reason, you will not be disappointed.
GROWING INSTRUCTIONS.
Sow indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost, then transplant 24" apart once danger of frost has passed and soil is warm--usually 2-3 weeks after last frost. Cover immediately with row cover, as flea beetles love to devour eggplant leaves. Eggplants want heat; choose your sunniest spot for them. Give them ample water, drip irrigation is best. Harvest when fruit have reached 4-6" in diameter and prepare like any Italian eggplant.
