Burpee's “Black Beauty”
Earliest and best of all large-fruited Egg Plants. It is valuable alike to the private planter and the extensive grower for market. Black Beauty produces fruits fully as large and ready for use ten days to two weeks earlier than the New York Improved Purple. The grand large fruits are thick, of most attractive form as shown in the illustration. The skin is a rich lustrous purplish black, the satin gloss and rich coloring adding greatly to the beauty of these “eggs.” the intensely brilliant coloring is uniform over the whole fruit. The calyx is entirely free from spines or thorns. It is now very popular everywhere. Our seed has all been produced at Sunnybrook and other New Jersey farms. Pkt., 10c; ½ oz., 30c; oz., 50c; ¼ lb., $1.35; postpaid.
