This is my favorite eggplant, and I have tons of seeds! I germination tested, and 12 of 14 germinated in 7 days, this is very fresh seed.
This plant gets very large, and as you can see, so do the eggplants. It's a bit later than others, so start seeds 2 weeks earlier.
Firm snow white flesh, never ever bitter, and makes the best Moussaka I ever ate! I just want to share this incredible eggplant.
No trade, no SASE, no money, I will send out with my stamp. Pm me with your request stated, and also your address. The only thing I require is for you to let me know you got the seeds.

What an offer, thank you! We had a really delicious Moussaka for dinner last night, Iā€™m ready to try my hand at making my own.

Really nice offer, I'll take you up on! I already have 6 varieties started, but I'm still looking for an OP replacement to a hybrid favorite - Neon - that is no longer on the market. And Matrosik must be heat resistant, given where you are growing!

Marsha I like your taste. Matrosik is a favorite of mine and it is so generous of you to be making this offer to everyone and on your birthday too! What a special lady you are. I hope everyone enjoys this one as much as I have.

I actually think it was your post of Nikitovka seeds to share that turned me on to this, but I bought a whole packet from her. These are my saved, and there seems to be over 2000!! From one eggplant!
It is my very favorite, and I wanted to share. Gary also asked me if I could give him some for his seed MMMM, so I will give him a lot of those and another called Rosita, also one of my favorites. Thank you for your kind words.šŸ’–

Do you have any seeds left? I was going to pass, but that nice big fruit just screams eggplant parmesan to me. If not, it was Nikitovka that they came from, correct? Thanks.

I received Matrosik eggplant seeds from @Ginger2778 this spring (thanks, Marsha!) and rushed to start some seeds in time to grow two plants this year. What a beautiful eggplant! The prettiest one I've ever grown, edging out Listada de Gandia and Rosa Bianca. Plants were large, healthy and trouble-free except for the typical flea beetles, always a scourge of eggplant here. Production was moderate, but that was true of all our eggplants this year, probably because of the early-onset heat and persistent drought. My late planting date for these was a factor also. Texture was excellent and flavor was very good -- rich and flavorful moreso than sweet. I'm looking forward to growing this again next year!
