Shirlton - I grew Diamond from Realseeds for the past 2 years - and was very impressed - they produced much more than any other Aubergine I've tried. Very nice. I've been seduced by a striped violet one this year though!  ::)

Great, that's what I'm growing! I have 16 sturdy plants; they are much bigger than my pepper and tomato plants! At the moment they are spending  their days in my front garden and nights in the porch.  I'm planning to plant them out on the plot under a low tunnel in the 3rd week of May.

Jeannine - just knew that I should have added no longer available!!

It was from Simpsons, but now only available elsewhere in mixed packets - so far as I know.

Noticed flowerbuds on one of my Diamond aubergine plants this morning :o! What now? It's too early to plant them on the plot.
