Eggplants in containers

This has been a great eggplant year. I like to grow them in containers, as  they're beautiful plants. They're not always lovely, however, because of flea beetles. But this year was a happy exception.

I'm continuing to harvest lots of Ping Tung eggplants, along with more of the two Italian-types, which had slowed flowering and fruiting in the heat and drought of late summer.
