Eggplant - Slim Jim
I got these seeds from Pinetree Seeds. Slim Jim is a deep purple Italian heirloom eggplant that produces 4-6 inch by 1 inch elongated fruits. Each plant can produce a dozen or more eggplants. Beware of the spines, but enjoy watching this variety grow eggplants in little clusters. The only complaint I could find about this variety is that the shape makes it too small for eggplant Parmesan. Most US seed sellers label this as a 4-foot tall plant, but seed sellers in Europe and Australia label them as "dwarf" plants and suggest they get to 24 inches tall. I suspect two separate strains. This is supposed to be container appropriate.
