fruit of the aubergine

This is the fruit which develops on the plant with the same colour pale mauve flowers as featured in my other album.

Posted for Joanne @gardencat who asked to see it.

There were also aubergine plants in the same glasshouse with the usual dark purple colour fruit but with pale mauve flowers.
