Without a doubt Beetroot Bolthardy is the variety for early sowing, due to its resistance to bolting.

This tried and tested variety has beets with an excellent sweet flavour, smooth skin and deep red tender flesh.

I started these early but have been making successive sowings all summer and they are still coming up. They have an excellent deep pink colour when cooked and seem to be resistant to pests and able to grow in even my poorest soil. very tasty too!

Had missed growing these for a few years but can now remember exactly why I used to grow them on my allotment in London - they are so reliable! Excellent cropper, taste great and germinated brilliantly - will be buying and growing them again.
