Beet Seeds – Chioggia

Description

Beta vulgaris

HEIRLOOM. The Chioggia beet is an Italian specialty dating back to the 1840s. Sometimes referred to as Candystripe or Bull’s Eye, the rounded red roots reveal a striking pink and white bullseye pattern when sliced into. This beet is a festive and stunning addition to any dish. The greens of the Chioggia beet can also be eaten and cooked similarly to spinach. In our opinion, the flavor is not quite as sweet as typical beets, but delicious all the same, and they don’t stain quite as intensely as the better known deep, red beets.

Minimum 110 seeds per packet.
