Eggplant - Thai Green Egg

Solanum melongena

Eggplant 'Thai Green Egg' is a compact and productive Asian variety producing attractive oval fruit with distinctive pale green and white striped skin. A staple of Thai and Southeast Asian cooking, the tender flesh has a mild, slightly bitter flavour that works beautifully in curries, stir-fries, and soups where it absorbs surrounding flavours and adds a satisfying texture. A versatile and prolific variety that suits both garden beds and container growing in a warm, sunny position.
