I would LOVE to try those little pea eggplants @Pulsegleaner, and I've actually 'tried' the seeds having planted an entire packet of 35 seeds once and nothing happened. I had the heat mats, I waited almost 2 months thinking maybe the wild genes have driven them into deep dormancy. I just could not get a single seed to sprout. I lump this one in with culanto - Very Difficult. I'm tempted to try them again this year, but I wonder if it would just be a waste of $$.well, you could always go after some of the eggplant like other solanums, Some of those are tiny, like the Thai pea, the Ugandan pea (currently on the EFN site under its African name Kitiley.)
Have you eaten those pea eggplants? I'm very curious what they taste like.
