(Climbing Nightshade, Nightshade)
Though attractive, deadly nightshade is a weedy, perennial vine that is rarely planted purposefully. It is native to Eurasia but has become naturalized across much of North America. In the wild, it favors thickets, open woods and is often found climbing fences because the seeds are passed through bird droppings.
This clambering vine is borne from a taproot that tends to spread by rhizomes. Its long, vining stems are smooth, often purple and climb by twining around the stems and branches of...

A healthy, mature plant has large, fuzzy, green leaves and an upright, bushy habit. Fruits are generally ready to harvest in 90 to 120 days after sowing from seed, or only 50 to 70 days when planted outdoors from robust seedlings.
The felty green leaves of eggplant sometimes have a purplish hue and appear on bushy, upright...
(Applegreen Eggplant, Eggplant)
Lots of mile, egg-shaped, light green fruits are produced on 'Applegreen' in the heat of summer. A very early-producing cultivar, it was developed by Elwyn Meader in 1964. The glossy fruits have a non-acidic flavor and tender white flesh. Peeling the thin, non-bitter skin isn't necessary before cooking. The upright bushy plant matures to waist high. Harvest is most plentiful from summer to fall, until plants are killed by light frost. Fruit is around 5 inches (12 centimeters)in diameter. The harvest...
