To the professionals, it is Solanum melongena; to the rest of us it is either an Aubergine or Eggplant depending on the side of the Atlantic we reside on. The plant has large, mid-green, coarsely lobed leaves, with a spiny stem, and while the Aubergine is grown primarily for its fruit, it still boasts a delicate beauty when in bloom. Its flowers are small, with five-petalled blossoms usually purple in colour and with eye-catching bright yellow stamens. Some cultivars produce the fruit early in season, but it is highly useful as garden produce, and is best to grow under glass.
