All four went in to our first Ratatouille of the year (yum!). They were tender and mild - the flesh color of the Casper Cross was very pale green, and the other three had very white flesh.

the black casper looks more like those japanese eggplants.
. i have a kermit hybrid too but unlike your Apple green, it is elongated.
this is one beautiful eggplant.
