Product Description

  • Heirloom variety
  • High yields of fruits up to 2 lbs. each
  • Tops for Southern gardens
  • Tasty grilled, bakes, stir fried
  • Suitable for containers, edible gardens
An heirloom variety, Black Beauty Eggplant bears lots of classically shaped, glossy, purple-black fruits that are delicious grilled, baked, in Asian dishes and stir-fries. The fruits weight up to 2 lbs. each. Black Beauty Eggplant grows well in many areas of the country—and is a top choice for the southeastern United States where it is recommended by many Extension Services, including ones in Florida, Kentucky and Texas. Its gorgeous fruits and purple blooms also make the plant ornamental, making it a good choice for the edible landscape, growing in the sunny flowerbed, or in patio containers and Grow Tubs™. Start eggplant seed indoors about 8-10 weeks before night temperatures are above 55 degrees F. 80 DAYS.

happy monday everyone!! look at this beautiful black beauty eggplant gifted from @gurneysseed . she was started from seed and has grown so well! eggplants require soil to be at around 70° before they can be planted out! hence the reason i'm just now getting these in the garden. they love the sun and are strong sturdy plants when healthy and happy. although when the fruit starts bearing they do need some type of support to hold the weight. i will be adding a cage to this one? eggpla
