White aubergine???

tinagardner · October 2021

I planted white aubergine in my green house next to tomatoes and banana peppers. They have not turned out white they are red in colour and the shape of a tomatoes. When I cut into it they are similar to aubergine. Can you tell me why this has happened? Thanks

The first thing to look into would be the quality of the seed...

May be a mixup of the seeds. I grow a type of aubergines which resemble the shape and size of tomatoes - Turkish orange.

I agree it’s probably a seed mix up.

Can you post a photo of the red aubergine? You can do this by clicking on the ‘mountain icon’.

There’s also the melanzana rossa in Italy and the scarlet eggplant, a cultivar of Solanum aethiopicum (also called Ethiopian eggplant or mock tomato).
