This is the classic garden beet. It is a dependable beet that has been popular since it was introduced in the 1890s. Wonderful, sweet taste and the baby leaves make great salad greens.
The vintage pictures of Detroit Dark Red Beets are from ‘The D.M. Ferry Seed Company’ catalogues of the late 1890s and early 1900s.
Within Canada only shipping on beet seed, thank you.
