Eggplant Black Beauty is a vigorous, high-yielding annual known for its large, glossy purple fruits and strong plant structure. It thrives in full sun to semi-shade and is well-suited for both tray sowing and direct planting. The fruits are typically round to slightly oval, with a rich flavor and firm texture, making them perfect for grilling, roasting, or stewing. With a germination period of 10–14 days and maturity in 80–90 days, this variety is a favorite among gardeners for its reliability and performance. Seeds are chemically treated with Thiram and not intended for food, feed, or processing.
