Aubergine 'Baby Belle' F1 Seeds

Overview

Aubergine 'Baby Belle F1' is a very productive compact variety that forms a number of small jet-black ‘jewel-like’ aubergines with the taste, texture & appearance of the larger varieties.

Aubergine 'Baby Belle F1' is a quick maturing, spine free variety that should be grown under glass as it needs warmth to crop well. A fortnightly feed with a tomato fertiliser will help boost ripening & cropping.

It only reaches 30cm tall so is perfect for growing in containers and it looks good too with lovely purple flowers & then beautiful shiny fruit. It will need a bit of staking to help support the heavy aubergines.
