Beta vulgaris
150 SEEDS
The Detroit Dark Red beetroot is a well known and widely used variety because of its flavoursome leaves and delicious roots. Expect beautiful beets of up to 7-8cm and baby leaves of green with red veins. (stunning in salads!)
Soak seeds for 8hrs or overnight to improve the germination rate – when they sink, they are ready to plant. The beetroots store well and have a good resistance to ‘downy mildew’.
