Eggplant-Chinese Bride

Solanum melongena (Night Shade family)

It’s commonly called “Asian Bride”, belongs to India, China and Taiwan. Like other eggplants it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals such as folic acids, fibers, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, copper, niacin, thiamine, vitamin C, B-6, K. Its has a meaty inside and when you cooked, gives a creamy consistency. It’s texture makes it a good stand-in for meat. This is by far our favorite eggplant, simply for its versatility in the kitchen. A heavy producer, this one loves the heat

  • “My live plants were packed like they belonged in Ft Knox. 😂 They really were packed beautifully. Only one plant, a bee balm, is questionable but signs that it will recover are happening. All in all I am thrilled with my plants and seeds. Some of my coreopsis have already sprouted!”

  • “I’ve ordered seeds from Whitwam Organics 3 or 4 times now. I love the simple packaging, clear planting guidelines, and variety they offer. Great germination rates!! The bare root plants I’ve ordered have come healthy, so healthy that the wild rabbits always approve of my menu upgrades! 😂🐰”
