Do not buy online
Dont buy eggplants online. They will send you black beauty eggplants regardless of what kind of eggplants you select.

Favorite Eggplant
I love the Bonnie Plants Ichiban Eggplant. It is easy to grow and harvest. It tastes so much better than a globe eggplant that it is the only one we eat. Fantastic!
