Eggplant 'Aswad'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Aswad is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside.

Start indoors eight weeks before last frost date.

As Aswad is tender, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.

This variety can grow to three or more pounds each.
