Grow Heirloom Eggplants - Plant Turkish Orange Eggplant Seeds

Native to Turkey, this heirloom produces a small plant with sweet, flavorful, orange eggplants. Small in size, about 3" round, they almost look like an heirloom tomato! Sized for the small garden, one Turkish Orange Eggplant is perfectly proportioned for dinner for two. Sliced, breaded and fried, the orange skin will keep its color and the center will turn wonderfully creamy.
