TAKING A LITTLE BREAK! We’re busy stocktaking and visiting gardens from June 26 – July 12. Orders will be dispatched the week of July 13. Thanks for your patience!
Sweet and delicious beets, Golden Boldor is a consistent performer. The globe roots have a lovely coppery-red skin and bright internal flesh. A show-stopper on your plate. They are great in salads, as a hot veg or a pickle: they don’t bleed when cooked & they retain their colour. This beet variety is hard to beat! Price for 50 seeds
SOW your beetroot seeds 10-20mm deep. Use cloches to warm the soil for early sowings (that is during February to April or a little later in colder areas). Once your soil has started to warm (from April in milder areas) you can sow without protection. Sow seed every 4-6 weeks for a continuous supply of beets
GROW: beet seeds are actually a cluster and will require thinning, alternatively pull some for use when young & leave the rest to grow on. Keep weed free and try not to let the soil dry out. This variety can be pulled young to enjoy as mini beets.
ENJOY: great in salads, as a hot veg or a pickle: they don’t bleed when cooked & they retain their colour. You can also cook young leaves and stems like spinach or eat raw in salads. To Freeze – cook until tender, rinse, drain & dry, peel & slice or dice.
