100 Egyptian Beetroot Seeds (Beta vulgaris)

💰 Price: Package of 100 Seeds

Egyptian Beetroot (Beta vulgaris), also known as the Beetroot Flat of Egypt, is an heirloom variety dating back to the 1800s. This unique beetroot is recognized for its flattish, heart-shaped root and dark red flesh with lighter zones. It has earned its place as one of the most treasured beets for its sweet, tender, and flavorful flesh. 🌱

Originating in Egypt, this heritage variety was first described in the early 1800s and became common in seed catalogs by 1870. It was praised by French horticulturists in 1885 as "an exceedingly early variety and certainly the best of the early kitchen-garden kinds." Its French name, Betterave Rouge Noir Plate d’Egypte', reflects its significance in European gardens as well.

The Egyptian Beetroot produces smooth-skinned, heart-shaped roots that are typically wider than tall. The flesh is a rich crimson/burgundy, making it not only a tasty addition to your garden but also a beautiful one. This beetroot is known for its sweet, tender texture, and it is perfect for fresh consumption, such as when grated into salads. Unlike other beets, the flesh of Egyptian Beetroot does not contain fibrous strings, giving it a smooth texture that is highly desirable for both raw and cooked dishes. 🥗

🌱 How to Sow 100 Egyptian Beetroot Seeds:

  1. Prepare the Soil: Beetroots grow best in well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (around 6.0-7.0). As this variety thrives in shallow soils, it is ideal for raised beds or containers.

  2. Planting: Sow seeds directly outdoors in early spring or start them indoors in cold frames for an earlier harvest. Space seeds 1-2 inches apart in rows, and cover lightly with soil. Keep the soil moist and ensure the temperature stays around 50-70°F (10-21°C) for optimal germination.

  3. Germination: Beetroots typically take 7-14 days to germinate, depending on temperature. Thin the seedlings as they grow, leaving about 3-4 inches between plants to allow for proper root development.

  4. Harvesting: Egyptian Beetroot is known for its rapid early-season growth. The beets can mature in 50-60 days, and because they grow close to the surface, they can be pulled out rather than dug up. This makes harvesting simple and quick, especially for early-season crops.

🌿 Plant Maintenance & Care 100 Egyptian Beetroot Seeds:

  1. Watering: Beetroots require regular watering 💧 to keep the soil consistently moist, especially in dry weather. Avoid over-watering, as it can cause root rot. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging.

  2. Fertilization: Beetroots benefit from light feeding during the growing season. Use a balanced, organic fertilizer to ensure healthy growth. Over-fertilizing with nitrogen can lead to excess foliage growth instead of robust roots.

  3. Sunlight: Egyptian Beetroots thrive in full sun 🌞 and require at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. If growing in containers or in a cold frame, ensure the plants have access to plenty of light.

  4. Weeding: Regular weeding is important to keep your beetroot plants free from competition. Mulching around the base can also help conserve moisture and suppress weeds.

  5. Temperature & Frost: While this variety grows best in spring and summer, be mindful of frosts. Mature beets should not be exposed to hard frosts, so harvest them before cold weather sets in. In colder climates, cold frames or early sowing is recommended to ensure a successful crop.

  6. Bolting Resistance: Egyptian Beetroot is resistant to bolting, making it an ideal variety for early planting in the spring. This allows for a quicker harvest compared to other beet varieties. 🌿

🍽️ Uses and Benefits:

  • Fresh Eating: The sweet, tender flesh of Egyptian Beetroot is perfect for raw salads, especially when grated or sliced thin.

  • Cooking: These beets also shine when roasted, steamed, or even pickled for long-term preservation.

  • Nutritional Value: Beets are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, making them a healthy and versatile addition to your diet. 🥕
