Eggplant Seeds - Floriculture Greens

Floriculture Greens eggplant plants are warm-season annuals with an upright, bushy growth habit and steady vegetative development throughout the frost-free growing season. They are adapted to warm and temperate climates and perform best with consistent warmth, full sunlight, and evenly moist soil conditions. Plants grown from seed establish reliably in fertile, well-drained soil and develop strong stems that support uniform seasonal growth. This variety is suitable for home gardens, raised beds, and container planting where adequate spacing allows good air circulation and balanced plant development.
