Beet ~ Chioggia

A beloved Italian heirloom from the coastal town of Chioggia, this beet is treasured for its striking interior of concentric red and white rings. Smooth, round roots offer a mild, sweet flavor that is less earthy than many traditional beets, making them especially appealing for fresh eating. Best enjoyed roasted lightly or sliced raw to showcase their signature pattern, though the rings soften in color when cooked. The tender green tops are also excellent for sautéing or salads. Well-suited to Canadian gardens, Chioggia performs reliably in cooler weather and matures evenly for a beautiful, consistent harvest. 55-60 days root, 25-30 days baby greens
