Grow more beets in less space with Cylindra Beet Seeds, a classic heirloom from Denmark prized for its smooth, elongated roots and exceptional flavor. This non-GMO variety produces tender, sweet beets with deep red flesh—perfect for roasting, pickling, or canning. The cylindrical shape allows for easy slicing and maximizes yield in raised beds or compact garden plots.
Delicious and Nutritious from Leaf to Root:
Both the roots and greens of Cylindra Beets are edible and packed with nutrients. The earthy-sweet roots are ideal for fresh salads, juicing, and cooking, while the young greens can be sautéed, steamed, or harvested early as microgreens for a vitamin-rich addition to your diet.
Efficient Growth and Reliable Performance:
Cylindra’s uniform, straight roots grow down rather than out, allowing dense planting without crowding. This makes it a favorite among home gardeners seeking high productivity in limited space. Its dependable germination, smooth texture, and consistent flavor make it an excellent choice for both fresh use and long-term storage.
