Eggplants

Eggplants (Solanum melongena) are tropical, herbaceous, perennial plants closely related to tomatoes in the Solanaceae family, which are cultivated for their edible fruit. The plants have a branched and simple, long, flat stem. The leaves can measure 10 to 20 cm long and 5 to 10 cm wide. The plant produces purple flowers that are 3-5 cm in diameter. The fruit can reach 40 cm in length, with a smooth, shiny surface and numerous small seeds. The color of the fruit is variable and can be white, green, yellow, purple, or black. Eggplants can reach up to 1.5 m in height and, although they are perennials, they are most commonly grown as annuals.
