I was going to say Tigerella. Pretty -- but mushy-- okay if harvested almost
ripe and eaten day after.


I just read the lable and it is an heirloom and, from the picture,
it is the smaller version and has true stripes. We'll see when I get
some ripe. I just transplanted them into the garden. It was an
impulse buy at Home Depot as was the egg plants.
