Aubergine Grafted Plant - F1 Scorpio
Wouldn’t you love to harvest delicious aubergines 2 months early!
The Aubergine F1 Scorpio will produce fine deep purple aubergines. With this outstanding grafted variety you could be picking delicious, top quality, sleek and shiny formed aubergine fruits. The F1 Scorpio will crop 2 months earlier than you might otherwise have done. It’s very easy to grow and very heavy cropping right through to the autumn months. Aubergines are an excellent source of fibre and are deliciously tasty either grilled or fried.
What’s so good about grafted veg plants?
Grafting onto specific rootstocks, of course, creates bigger, better, more disease-resistant plants with increased yield. Consequently, we believe, the extra vigour which the plant obtains will provide even better protection to late Blight attack, and the plants will grow away from any infection even more rapidly.
Grow in the greenhouse or outdoors, little or no heating required. With excellent resistance to soil-borne pest and diseases - No more ring culture or grow bags you simply plant straight in the soil.
Caring for your F1 Scorpio
On arrival water if necessary with tepid water. Leave them on a shaded windowsill or in a greenhouse for a few hours to settle before further handling, ensuring a frost-free non-draughty situation. Stand the plant in a warm, light, airy place such as a windowsill or conservatory and allow to grow, ensuring that the compost is kept moist.
There is a possibility that your plant will include a grafting clip if it does, this is an integral part of the grafting process and that it should be left in place. As the plant grows it will naturally shrug off the clip.
