Botanical Interests® Organic Beet Early Wonder

$2.69

Packet

Since the early 1900s, ‘Early Wonder’ has delivered abundant greens, flavorful beets, and early production. Great for mild climates where multiple crops are possible. The 18″ greens are as delicious, and high in vitamins A and C, iron, and potassium. Beet seed is actually a dried fruit with 1-5 seeds in each fruit, so thinning is very important.
