Stick Striped Oval Eggplant
Stick striped oval eggplant is both ornamental and tasty, with elongated light lilac fruits marked by darker stripes that stand out in the garden and on the plate.
The Stick Eggplant Plant
It belongs to the species Solanum melongena, family Solanaceae. A medium-sized annual herbaceous plant, with a semi-woody stem and lilac flowers preceding the elongated, tapered fruits.
How to Sow Stick Eggplant
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, with soil temperature between 20 and 30°C; transplant once the seedling reaches 15-20 cm in height.
How to Grow Stick Eggplant
It prefers fertile, well-drained soil, sunny exposure and regular watering, especially during fruit set, to obtain firm-fleshed fruits.
Tips for Stick Eggplant
Harvest while fruits are still young and the skin is taut and glossy: once past the optimal ripeness the flesh tends to become fibrous and seedier.
Diseases and Pests of Stick Eggplant
Like other eggplants it can be affected by Colorado potato beetle, aphids and red spider mite; good soil drainage prevents root rot after heavy rain.
Uses and Curiosities of Stick Eggplant
Its elongated shape makes it ideal cut into sticks for frying or grilled whole, keeping the pleasant colour contrast of the skin intact.
Properties of Stick Eggplant
Made up of over 90% water, Stick eggplant is low in calories and rich in fibre, potassium and antioxidants beneficial to overall wellbeing.
