Aubergine Black Beauty

A true garden classic, Black Beauty is one of the most popular and reliable
aubergine varieties for home growers. With its glossy, deep purple-black skin and
rounded, plump shape, this time-honoured variety produces medium size fruits that
are just as beautiful as they are delicious.

Perfect for warm, sunny spots, Black Beauty thrives in a greenhouse or a sheltered
garden bed, ideally south-facing and protected from strong winds. The plants grow in
a neat, compact form, making them an excellent choice for containers, raised beds,
or smaller gardens where space is limited.

Each plant yields smooth-skinned, firm-fleshed aubergines that are perfect for
grilling, roasting, or using in classic Mediterranean dishes such as moussaka,
ratatouille, or lasagna. These are richly flavoured fruits that bring a true summer twist
to any kitchen garden.

To grow successfully, Aubergine - Black Beauty prefers full sun and responds well to
regular feeding throughout the season. It is best grown with a little support or
staking, which helps the plant manage the weight of its fruit and ensures the best
possible development.

Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned gardener, Aubergine Black Beauty is a
rewarding, flavour-packed variety that brings beauty, productivity and a touch of
Mediterranean charm to your garden.
