Please note: this listing is for SEEDS, not fresh eggplants!

This African variety has a delicious flavor. There are many varieties of Garden Egg, but this white variety is most popular among West African and Southeast Asian families. The fruit are versatile and can be eaten raw, boiled, sautéed, or in soups. They are slightly later to produce and taller than other eggplant but very productive once they get going. Many traditional African recipes can be found online but they also are excellent simply grilled or sautéed with other veggies. The rich flavor lends itself well to spicy dishes. Young leaves are cooked down into stews.

The seeds for this variety originate from Yao, an immigrant from Togo and Ethnic Crop Specialist in Maryland. The seeds were sourced from relatives in Africa and have been grown out from years on a research farm. This variety, also known as Scarlet Eggplant or Gilo, is very sought after in the West African communities, especially those from Ghana, Senegal-Gambia, Guinea, and Sierra Leone. In Ghana, they are one of the three most important vegetables along with tomatoes and peppers. They are valued for their rich and slightly bitter flavor, thin skin, and taste in numerous African stews. These are also popular with Burmese and Nepali refugee families. The white, unripe fruit can be eaten raw, boiled whole, and eaten with chili paste or most commonly cooked in stews. The leaves are also eaten and are rich in iron, vitamin c, calcium, and riboflavin. In one recipe, they are sautéed with onion, garlic, anise, mushrooms, hot pepper, parsley, and nutmeg. Then, served as a side dish over rice, couscous, boiled yucca, or yams.

Planting / harvesting notes

These are heat-loving and seeds should be started indoors about 1/4" deep, about 8 weeks before the last frost. Transplant into garden well after the danger of frost. The growing characteristics are similar to most eggplants. The plants reach about 4-5 feet tall and should be planted 12 inches apart. They need full sun and fertile soil. Staking helps as the plants become heavy. The eggplants begin green, but should be picked when they are about 3 inches long and white. They must be picked regularly to keep production and ensure they don’t over ripen. For seed saving the fruits ripen to orange.

Seed keeping notes

Eggplants are generally self-pollinating, though we isolate different varieties of the same species by 300 feet, in hopes that flying insects will not cross pollinate them unexpectedly. Eggplant seeds are ripe when the fruits get far past their edible stage, and have turned another color, in this case orange. Cut the fruit, scrape out seeds (perhaps through a heavy-duty screen) into a vessel, add a little water (1-2" is probably plenty) to your seeds and pulp to keep them from drying out, and allow them to ferment away from direct sunlight. Fermentation is not necessary with eggplants, but it makes seed cleaning a bit easier. Ideally, you will stir the concoction every day for 3-5 days. In the end, add more water to fill the vessel, stir one final time, and allow to settle. Pour off the floating material and then strain the seeds through a strainer. Sometimes, you will need to add more water and pour off the floating material several times until the water is clear and you can see the seeds sunken at the bottom. Squeeze dry the strained seeds in a towel, and then lay out to dry on a labeled screen or paper product in a ventilated place away from direct sunlight for a week or two.

Used for 3 years, buying again!
Color: Black
Bought 2 of these 3 years ago. One of them just broke (a crucial plastic piece snapped so not fixable). But with the low price and the countless road trips we’ve used these on I feel I’ve gotten my moneys worth. Purchasing again. 5 stars.

Works ok. But not for thick cases
Color: Black
Works ok so far. Not good for thick tablet cases. Like foam ones or protective ones for kids.

Simple, easy, great!
Color: Black
10 out of 10 would recommend. We used it in our spring break trip and it was great. Held not only our kids iPads but phones as well. It was easy to install, not too expensive and for us it helped prevent car sickness which hits us all sadly. The fit was nice because it was adjustable, and the fact that the kids didn’t have to hold them for as great! This product was seriously the Best purchase I think I’ve done.

The best car tablet holder
Color: Black
This was our second iPad holder for the car. The first one was sort of flimsy and made a lot of noise. This one is perfect and we can either put it in front of one child or extend the arm and put it between both of them. We’ve actually just left it on the headrest because it feels secure and it doesn’t rattle or make noise. We’ve had it about 7 months and it’s been great. It’s installed through a spring loaded grip and it’s great and fits in my 2019 highlander perfectly.
