Great for Containers

I grew two plants in large pots and they did great. Short and bushy growth habit but very productive. Loved the firm flesh—held up well in stir fries.

Gorgeous and Gourmet

These eggplants are almost too pretty to pick. Deep purple skin and a unique round shape that makes them feel like something out of a fine dining kitchen. Taste backs it up too!

Excellent Texture When Roasted

Roasted these with garlic and olive oil, and they turned out creamy and rich. Much more flavorful than regular globe eggplants. My plants thrived in a sunny corner of the garden.

Unique Shape and Great Yield

I wasn’t familiar with Kamo before this season, but I’m hooked now. Got several round fruits per plant, and they cooked down buttery soft. Guests kept asking what kind it was!

Excellent for Japanese Dishes

I grow a lot of eggplant for home-cooked Japanese meals, and this one’s a standout. It’s perfect for miso-glazed eggplant or tempura. Holds its shape well when cooked.
