The Long Purple Eggplant lives up to its name with its extended, cylindrical shape that’s perfect for slicing. This variety is particularly well-suited for Italian dishes such as lasagna. By planting Long Purple Eggplant seeds, you can look forward to a generous yield, with each plant producing over eight tasty eggplants. These eggplants are not only ideal for slicing, much like cucumbers, but also grow in clusters of long, rich purple fruits. Their delicious flavor makes them a favorite in the kitchen, and they thrive best when grown in full sun exposure.
