Albion

The Albion eggplant is a mid-season large-fruited variety intended for cultivation in open ground and film greenhouses. The period from germination to the beginning of ripening is 110-120 days, which allows for harvest within a moderate timeframe. The plant is semi-spread, which facilitates care and fruit harvesting.

The fruits of the Albion eggplant have an unusual white coloration and a pear shape, with a mass ranging from 250 to 300 grams. The fruit flesh is dense, white, and juicy, and is completely free of bitterness, which is an important advantage for culinary use. Spines on the calyx of the fruits are rare, which makes the harvesting process more convenient.

This variety is prized for its delicate taste, which surpasses dark-colored varieties in tenderness and resembles dishes made from chicken or mushrooms. The Albion eggplant is widely used in home cooking for preparing eggplant caviar, canning, as well as grilling, which allows its unique taste qualities to be revealed.
