With Living Seeds’ Organic Black Beauty Aubergine 3.75g seeds, you can bring a touch of the Mediterranean straight into your garden. This classic variety impresses with its glossy, large, deep-purple fruits, which are not only a visual highlight but also delight the palate. The plant remains pleasantly compact, yet still delivers an impressively high yield – perfect for hobby gardeners who value both quality and quantity.
For successful cultivation, it’s best to sow the seeds in trays in March. Once the young plants are strong enough, transplant them outdoors or into a greenhouse between April and May. Ensure a germination temperature of 20–25 °C to ensure optimal germination. From August onwards, you can harvest your first aubergines and enjoy fresh fruit right through to October.
They open up a whole host of possibilities in the kitchen: slice the aubergines, fry them until golden brown and marinate them in olive oil with garlic and herbs – a real treat as an antipasti or side dish. The aubergines are also ideal for bakes, ratatouille or as grilled vegetables. With these seeds, you’re choosing organic quality and supporting sustainable farming. This way, you’re not only bringing healthy, flavourful aubergines to your table, but also a piece of nature into your own home.
