Black Beauty Eggplant
$3.00
If you are looking for the standard eggplant to make eggplant parmigiana or ratatouille this may be your plant. It produces standard shaped eggplants. Keep in mind that Eggplants need hot weather to really put on fruit. This plant will not put out a lot of fruit but it will put out big fruit that you can get a lot of food out. Eggplants need a slightly acidic soil. Try treating the area you are planting with some coffee grounds to give it a little acid boost.
Plant these 12 go 18 inches apart for best experience.Many eggplants tent to get their leaves eaten by little beetles. If this happens treat the plant with a soapy water spray.

These are SEEDS not Plants 🙂
Black Beauty Eggplant
This is a standard classic eggplant. Like many eggplants it does not turn on the production until it is hot. It is a 90 days. Standard old type, large black fruit of excellent quality. Very tasty but is much later than many types and needs a long season.
Why Our Seeds Are Different
Locally Adjusted Heirlooms
All our seeds are heirlooms that are proven to be successful and stable for long term seed independence. We believe that fertile seeds produce more healthy food. We save local family heirlooms from extinction bringing these hardy cultivars to the seed banks, the marketplace and people’s tables.
Local Small Business
We are a homegrown seed and plant company with a suburban farm. We use urban sustainable agriculture with organic materials and no pesticides. We grow the plants and save the seeds, herbs, and fruit. We make our own packaging and sell it at the local farmers’ market.
Home Made Products
We make our own ointments and teas from scratch. We grow some of the ingredients ourselves and source what we can locally. We believe in the power of nature to help heal, soothe, and comfort. Try our teas for a lovely relaxing treat or our ointments to help with inflammation, pain, and skin conditions.
