If you read my blog last week about 'Eight Random Things About Me' , then you know I don't eat eggs....ugh....however, I do grow them......Where do you get yours?
A very dear gardener friend of mine, Jeanette, started me growing 'eggs' a few years ago. The green plants are pretty just growing but in a few weeks purple blooms appear. Then in a short while, the eggs begin to grow. As the plant ages, the eggs grow larger.....finally the eggs turn a deep, golden yellow......
This plant has about twelve eggs on it........It's a great conversation starter.......Children as well as adults are amazed to see 'eggs' growing on a bush.......I also have 'money' plants...that's for another day.......Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how do your eggs grow?

Are they edible, or is it just a conversation piece?
And here all my life I've been thinking eggs only comes from chickens! LOL Oh Betty, what a fabulous plant...of course I've seen eggplants but only the purple variety, I didn't realize the fruit could come in white also!! Very fascinating!! We can't grow them here because they are sensitive to cold. xox
How different. I've never seen these before. Very interesting.
