Mia S. ★★★★★

The deep purple cocktail fruits are gorgeous in the garden, and we loved grilling them on the BBQ straight off the vine. At 13 weeks from transplant, we got a solid 2.4kg harvest from just two plants.

Miles R. ★★★★★

I was worried about space, but these cocktail-sized eggplants fit perfectly in a small raised bed. We’ve already grilled a couple from the first harvest, and they’re delicious.

Jason ★★★★★

The plants look stunning in my garden bed with those deep purple leaves, and the harvest lived up to the promise—I got a solid 2.4kg off just a few plants. Slicing them thin and grilling on the BBQ turned out smoky and sweet, exactly what I was hoping for.
