Giralda Long Black Eggplant
A "Riminese" type hybrid with an early cycle, Giralda long black eggplant is one of the most valued varieties for growers seeking productivity combined with consistent quality: the slightly clavate fruit, 22-27 cm long, stands out for its smooth, glossy black skin and spineless, bright green calyx.
The Giralda Eggplant Plant
It belongs to the species Solanum melongena, family Solanaceae. A vigorous, upright plant with short internodes, open flowers and excellent foliage cover that protects the fruits throughout the growing cycle, ensuring high and steady productivity.
How to Sow Giralda Eggplant
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and April, transplanting into the field or greenhouse from April to June, using a planting layout of about 65-70 cm along the row and 120-140 cm between rows.
How to Grow Giralda Eggplant
Suitable for both greenhouse and open-field cultivation, it prefers fertile, well-drained soil; harvest generally runs from July to September, with fruits averaging around 210 g.
Tips for Giralda Eggplant
The firm white flesh develops seeds slowly: this allows high-quality fruit to be harvested over a wider picking window compared to faster-maturing varieties.
Diseases and Pests of Giralda Eggplant
Like other eggplants it can be affected by Colorado potato beetle, aphids and red spider mite; the plant's excellent foliage cover offers some natural protection to the fruits, while good soil drainage prevents root rot.
Uses and Curiosities of Giralda Eggplant
Thanks to its firm flesh and slow seed development, it is a versatile variety for both the fresh market and industrial processing, ideal grilled, fried or used for parmigiana and rolled dishes.
Properties of Giralda Eggplant
Rich in fibre that supports digestion, Giralda eggplant is also suitable for low-calorie diets thanks to its low calorie content and the antioxidant phytonutrients typical of Solanaceae.
Nutritional Values of Giralda Eggplant
Per 100 grams, Giralda eggplant provides about 24 kcal, 1 g protein, 5.7 g carbohydrates, 0.2 g fat and 3 g fibre.
