Category imageThis description was machine-translated.
Description
The Yellow beet is the golden‑yellow sister of the red beet and tastes slightly milder and sweeter. It does not discolor when cut, keeping salads and hands clean. Varieties such as 'Golden' or 'Boldor' shine in the garden like little suns.
Care instructions
Sow from April to June directly into the garden. Each seed is a cluster with multiple seedlings, so thin to one plant per spot after emergence. Keep the soil evenly moist and harvest from July when the tubers reach tennis‑ball size. The young leaves can be used as a side dish like Swiss chard.
