Sorry, Suze. Haven't been here at Eggplant section since the early December
This is a Russian CV. Bred by seed company Manul from Moscow. Midseason, indet. vigorous (more than 1 m tall) plant with a high yield of dark-purple-violet, elongated pear shaped 500-700 g fruits (about 20 cm long). I can grow it only in greenhouse here in Zone 4a. I think you won't be able to google it because this variety is almost unknown abroad (not in CIS) as many other varieties I'm offering here

Wish mine would put some fruit on like that, question, for both Ichiban and Ping tung long, should I expect a taller plant then 1 foot high? That one in your picture looks like its on its way to 2 or 3 feet. Maybe I just have a ways to go?

Andrey, thanks so much for the seeds.
Click for Larger Size CLa, most eggplants are going to get quite a bit more than one foot tall. I like to use the cheapie 'tomato' cages to support them. |

Those look great, Suze. I could really go for a grilled eggplant pannini about now.
