Product description

Southern Exposure Seed Exchange - Attractive 6-12 in. light green, banana-shaped fruits. Spineless plants average 4 ft. tall. The skin is not bitter and is easily eaten when harvested young about 5-6" in length. This plant is very prolific so be rady to add support. 

  • Certified Organic 
  • Heirloom 
  • Especially well-suited to the South-East 
  • .25g, ~55 seeds

    Instructions - Start seeds 8-10 weeks before setting outside, and set out 1-2 weeks after your last frost-free date. Don’t rush the season because cold-shock can stunt the seedlings. Flowers may not set fruit during exceptionally hot weather. Mature plants have good vigor in fall, so cover plants on frosty nights for 1-2 weeks to extend the harvest season. Keep well picked to keep plants producing. Small fruits have the best eating quality. Fruits are ripe when the skin appears glossy and the fruit is resilient to thumb pressure.

    • Space plants at 24" in equidistant spacing or 20" apart in rows 36" apart. 
    • Avoid growing on soil that has previously grown tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, or especially eggplants for the past three years. 
    • Days to maturity are from the transplant date
