CULTURE Sow in hot-bed early in Spring. The plants being very 



tender, must be sheltered from frost, but exposed, so far as practicable, 

 to sun and air. Egg Plant Seed will not vegetate freely without a 

 strong, uniform heat, and if the plants get the least chilled in the earlier 

 stages of growth they seldom recover. Therefore repeated sowings are 

 sometimes necessary. Care should be observed in cutting the fruit, so 

 as not to disturb the roots of the plants.
