Are these eggplants?
I had some mystery plants come up in my garden. I think they're eggplant seedlings. There are about 5 or 6, I think, all in one area, so I'm thinking a stray eggplant got itself planted from last year.
I planted 2 varieties last year, both bought as plants. One was supposed to be Ichiban, but the fruits never got more than 4" long, the other was "Patio Baby", I believe from a bonnie plant. That plant got dwarfed by some tomato plants so it barely grew and only made 1 teeny tiny little eggplant barely the size of a grape tomato. I know I didn't harvest that tomato, and all my extra plants were pulled up and left in the bed for longer than I planned, so anything could have dropped and gotten buried in the debris and left to germinate. I can't imagine these seedlings are from that tiny eggplant though. Probably from whatever was supposed to be ichiban. If they are eggplants even, what do you think? |
