Varieties of Beetroot
Which variety suits you depends on site, space and taste. Here are the Beetroot varieties with their particulars.
- ‘Boldor’A golden yellow variety with an orange‑red skin and bright yellow flesh that does not bleed when cooked and keeps your hands and cutting board clean.
- ‘Cylindra’Instead of round balls, ‚Cylindra’ forms 15 to 20 cm long, cylindrical roots that grow half above ground.
- ‘Pablo F1’A modern F1 hybrid with very even, smooth-skinned roots and strong dark red flesh with almost no pale rings.
- ‘Rote Kugel 2’The dependable home-garden classic with evenly round, deep red roots and thin skin.
- ‘Tonda di Chioggia’An old Italian variety from the lagoon of Chioggia whose charm lies in the cut surface: flesh ringed in red and white like a target.
