Beet, Chioggia, 4 oz Seeds

This is an Italian heirloom beet from the town of Chioggia, near Venice, and has been popular since the early 1800s. It's beautiful and sweet flavored. Sliced roots look like bull's-eyes having concentric rings of white alternating with wine-red. The green leaves are an excellent spinach substitute. Beet, Chioggia, 4 oz Seeds, Burpee
