Botanical Interest - Bull's Blood Beet Seeds

*VAT EXCLUSIVE SEEDS*
 
Sow one row for the beautiful greens, and another row for the delicious roots! 'Bull's Blood' is valued for its tender, sweet, dark red, almost burgundy foliage. Selected from a French heirloom for the darkest colored leaves, the 16" "greens" rival chard and spinach for delectability and nutritional content. The roots are also quite tasty when harvested small. Beets are excellent for mild climates where multiple crops are possible.

Plant Dimensions: Leaf tops to 16" tall
Variety Information: Dark red roots are 2"–3" in diameter and may have candy-striped zoning throughout the interior.

Dark red roots are sweet and flavorful.
