Chiogga Beets
I love this beet variety. It is easy to grow and has a delicious taste.

Great seeds, as usual
I used the paper towel method to check the viability of a few of the Chiogga Beet seeds, and all of the seeds sprouted tiny roots after just three days. I'm going to succession plant with more seeds, so I'm looking forward to having a great crop of beets. This company sells quality seeds, and bulbs that are well adapted to the desert's harsh climate, where I live. I've ordered many seeds, and bulbs from Native Seeds, and I will continue to order from this company.

Awesome seeds!
Seeds are low maintenance and grow very well in this climate!
