| July 26, 2011 - two eggplant fruits! |
Remember that eggplant seedling Ms. Smith Willis brought back on the plane from Georgia? Well, here it is! Look how big it's grown! It's had quite the journey... beginning in a Wal-Mart in Georgia, then under seat 16D on the flight home, to the 1SW classroom, to being planted by class 3M, to growing all spring, surviving a giant aphid attack in July and finally producing four (4) dark purple fruits! Mr. Corvino harvested the first one, followed by The Gagliardi family harvesting the second one! Be sure to ask them if they were delicious or not so delicious! What an adventurous journey our little eggplant seedling had! Who knew it would grow so big?
