Description
Beta vulgaris
These whoppers can grow to 6″ without becoming woody and are exceptional keepers.
Beloved Eastern European heirloom storage beet that just keeps getting sweeter the longer it sits in storage. Each plant produces a profusion of huge, glossy green leaves in addition to a lunker of a root. Your go-to for winning “largest beet” at the county fair!
