Thai Green

Thai Green, often sold as Thai Long Green, is a Southeast Asian eggplant grown for its long, light green fruits used in Thai and other Asian cuisines. The slender, curving fruits are eight to twelve inches long with thin, pale green skin and tender, mild flesh that stays sweet and non-bitter. The thin skin needs no peeling, and the flesh cooks quickly, making it a staple for curries, stir-fries, and grilling. Plants are vigorous and heat-loving, cropping heavily through long, hot summers and tolerating humidity well. Thai Green is favored by gardeners growing for Asian cooking who want an authentic green-fruited eggplant with tender flesh and dependable warm-season yields.
