Gorbelly, I came across your posts on Kamo and Mitoyo and was wondering which one is the heavier producer? I grew Mitoyo and put the plants in late this season so they're bit a slow but it is the best eggplant I've ever tasted. I like that full, rich flavor with no bitterness. I've yet to try Kamo but will try it out next season. I run a garden center with my family where we do a small produce stand and I like to experiment a bit. We've grown Rosa Bianca, Violetta di Firenze, Ichiban, Mitoyo, and Rosso di Rotondo. The only one I didn't like is Rosso...extremely bitter and I picked them at multiple stages. Perhaps it was an offyear for whatever reason, but I won't be using garden space on those again. How is Listada? I've heard it's very good.
