flower of the aubergine

Taken in West Dean Gardens. The aubergine fruit on this plant in the glasshouse was the same delicate mauve as its flower shown here.

Very pretty, any chance of getting a shot of one of the fruits? Don't think I've ever seen a pale mauve one. the ones we get in the store are all deep purple/black.
