Aubergine

[JoeCocker]

My Aubergine plant had finally flowered about a week ago and i was looking forward to seeing the new fruit. I've just been in the greenhouse and the flower and stalk has fallen off. What am i doing wrong?

It's probably just lack of pollination. The first flowers are always difficult to get to set particularly if you only have one plant.

Happens to mine every year. >:( I have one fruit from five plants so far this year.

Thanks, i have two plants, the other hasn't even flowered?

Maybe next time there is a flower on both plants why not try using a brush to transfer pollen from one to the other?
