Beet Chioggia OSC Seed is a beloved Italian home garden variety first recorded in 1840. It produces a light red, flattened globe-shaped root with striking alternate pink and white rings. Its green tops and red stems create a vibrant contrast when used in salads, plus its 5 cm (2”) diameter roots boast a pleasing old-fashioned flavor when cooked. Beet purists love this variety for its higher geosmin levels which lend an earthy taste.
