Overview
Specifications
- Position: full sun
- Soil: humus-rich, moisture retentive soil
- Rate of growth: average
- Hardiness: half-hardy annual An early maturing variety of aubergine, 'Listada di Gandia' is a prolific cropper with white-streaked, purple-skinned, oval fruits up to 15cm (6") in length. Best grown in greenhouses, it can be grown outside in a sheltered, sunny spot such as a container on a patio due to its compact habit. With an excellent flavour and charming colour, why not try this eye-catching tropical perennial?
- Growing instructions: Sow seeds in pots on a sunny windowsill from early spring and pot them on individually as they grow. Plant out from late May, after all threat of frost has passed, 45cm apart into grow bags or into the greenhouse border. Water well and feed fortnightly with tomato feed. Support with canes as the plants grow and pinch out the top of the plant once it's 45cm high to encourage bushy growth and more fruits.
