White Beauty Egg Plant
A superior quality, glistening white eggplant beyond all imagination. As the soap concerns advertise results “whiter than white,” applies also to white beauty. Shape is much like black beauty, but larger. Fruit attains a size of up to four pounds and over. Seed cavities are confined to the bud-end half. Flavor is deliciously mild when fried in batter, unlike the bitter taste of other varieties. Foliage is a rich light green, not having the purple tinge like other strains. Sturdy upright plants grow up to four feet tall, holding the fruit well off the ground. The combination of extremely high quality and striking eye appeal of White Beauty will certainly bring this variety in heavy demand in years ahead. Harvest of eggplant is at its best while skin is still glossy. Pkt., 25c; ¼ oz., 75c; oz., $3.25.
