Description
Black Beauty is a classic heirloom eggplant introduced in the early 1900s, known for glossy, deep purple-black fruits with a broad oval shape. The plants produce handsome fruits with smooth skin and mild flesh that holds up well in summer cooking.
Harvest while the skin is shiny and the fruits feel firm for grilling, roasting, frying, baking, and garden-to-skillet meals. Black Beauty has the look of a true old standard—dark, polished, productive, and still at home in backyard gardens more than a century later.
