Eggplant 'Rosita'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water very often. Keep in mind when planting that Rosita is thought of as tender, so it is imperative to wait until temperatures are mild before planting out of doors.

Start indoors eight weeks before last frost date.

Ensure a distance of 1.95 feet (60.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - look to sow at a depth of approximately 0.2 inches (0.5 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 15°C / 59°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Rosita about 42 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Rosita is a tender plant.
