Japanese Pickling (Nasu) is a traditional Japanese heirloom eggplant producing slender, glossy fruits around 20–25 cm long. The deep purple to almost black fruit is borne on attractive plants with rich purple stems, growing to approximately 75 cm tall. The cream-coloured flesh is almost seedless, becoming tender and creamy when cooked while readily absorbing flavours. With its sweet, mild taste and delicate texture, Nasu is ideal for grilling, stir-fries, curries, roasting, and traditional Japanese pickling.
Approximately 40 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)

Planting / Sowing
Sow seed in trays 5 mm deep in a warm, well drained seed-raising mix. Maintain temperatures between 22–30°C for reliable germination.

Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts.
