Description
Black Beauty eggplant has been a garden staple for over 100 years. This eggplant variety is an immediate hit because the plants ripen perfect fruits dramatically earlier than other varieties. Black Beauty has became the common market eggplant. This eggplant can be enjoyed roasted on salads or as a meat substitute, but when harvested fresh, however, makes all the difference. For best quality, harvest before its glossy, dark skin begins fading to dull purple.
