First Crop: Nicely globe shaped, tender and sweet, with an attractive deep red colour. This Veseys exclusive is ideal for the home garden or for bunching for early market. Excellent tops for beet greens with fine flavour and good colour. Extra early maturity. 45 days. Sized seed.

Merlin: Great colour, flavour and uniformity. One of the sweetest and darkest red beets we have found in our trials.

Keeps its shape better than other varieties in high density plantings.

Taunus: Intense dark red cylindrical beet that is easy to slice. This hybrid produces smooth 6-7 inch roots that are ideal to use for canning, freezing or pickling as it has no zoning on the interior and makes a perfect slice all the way to the bottom.Young leaves can be picked for delicious greens.
