Description:

Forono Beets are an heirloom variety with rich, dark red flesh and the lowest fiber content of all the beet varieties. Their smooth, creamy flesh is very sweet, and their unique shape screams ‘ Slice me into lovely, shiny medallions’ . May we quote Tom Robbins: ‘The beet is the most intense of vegetables. The radish, admittedly, is more feverish, but the fire of the radish is a cold fire, the fire of discontent, not of passion. Tomatoes are lusty enough, yet there runs through tomatoes an undercurrent of frivolity. Beets are deadly serious.’
