EGG PLANT 



CULTURE. — Sow the seed in hot-beds early in March. When three inches 

 high pot the young plants, using small pots, and plunge them in the same bed so 

 that the plants will become stocky. They can be planted out from the pots when 

 the season becomes sufficiently warm in May or June, or they can be transplanted 

 into a second bed to make them strong until the weather is warm enough to trans- 

 plant about three feet apart each way in a thoroughly-worked and - well-enrichedt 

 soil. Draw the earth up to the stems when about a foot high. Egg Plant Seed will 

 not vegetate freely without a strong, uniform heat, and if the plants get the least 

 chilled in the early 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. One ounce will produce about 

 1,000 plants. 



BLACK BEAUTY EGG PLANT. — The earliest of all large fruited Egg Plants, 

 and produces fruit quite as large as the NEW YORK PURPLE in 10 days leos 

 time. The fruit is symmetrical in shape, of uniform size, of a dark rich purple 

 color, which does not fade or change to lighter color at blossom end like some other 

 varieties. Just the variety for the market gardener and trucker for early spring 

 trade.

 garden variety has plants of strong growth, and is very productive, producing

THE FLORIDA HIGH-BUSH EGG PLANT.— Is in great demand by South-

 very erect and holds the fruits clear of the ground. 



BALTIMORE EGG PLANT. — This is decidedly the best and most profitable 

 Egg Plant in cultivation. It is large thornless, of beautiful shape and handsome 

 purple color. We have never seen finer specimens of Egg Plant than those grown 

 from our seed, when inspecting the field of Egg Plants growing for seed we were 

 surprised at the regular size and uniform, handsome color of the fruit all over the 

 field.
