Washed Cylindra beets on wood

Cylindra Beet seeds

SKU: C41971

Grow more beets in less space! Calendar beets have a unique cylindrical shape that allows them to grow deeper instead of wider, making it easy to grow more beets in less space since you can plant them closer together. Cylindra beets are also a great addition to a square-foot garden, as you can slip them into small spaces to make the most of your garden real estate. Each beet will grow up to 5" long and 2" wide.

 

The greens are also edible and can be used in salads or sauteed. The flavor is vegetal and earthy, similar to its cousin, the chard. The unique shape also allows you to cut these into small beet medallions, making them easy to prepare with less chopping. The flavor is best described as sweet and earthy, with a slightly mild flavor than its larger counterparts. Cylendria beets are a great option for canning or pickling due to their compact shape. These are great for container gardening and can even be grown in window boxes!
