Rita,
Thank you for your kind remarks. I'm certainly going to look into those Park's Whopper seeds.

I've grown the Beatrice eggplants before, too. She's a medium size purple and cream streaked fruit. I grew her in honor of my DEx's great Aunt Beatrix, the tiny Canadian-born pastry chef who was (at the time) the only female member of the Rutger's University President's cooking staff.

Feisty lil' woman. And, BOY, could she cook!!!

These are the first Beatrice eggplants I grew. They were in my homemade eBuckets, and did very well. Small enough to grow comfortably in a 5-gal eBucket.

This is my prize Black Beauty. Ain't she a "beaut?" This was my very first eggplant, ever!
