Beet Seeds - Chioggia Beet
Description
The beet that turns every slice into art. ‘Chioggia’ is a striking Italian heirloom with alternating rings of crimson and white inside each root—earning it the nickname “Candy Stripe Beet.” Its mild, sweet flavor and crisp texture make it ideal for fresh salads, roasting, or pickling, with less earthiness than darker varieties.
Round roots average 2–3 inches across and mature quickly, while the glossy green tops add extra harvest value for sautéing or steaming. Best enjoyed fresh to preserve its vivid interior pattern.
Originating from Chioggia, a coastal town near Venice in the early 1800s, this beet remains a beloved heirloom for its beauty and taste. A feast for both the eyes and the palate.
