Crapaudine is probably the worlds oldest variety of beetroot till in existence. Produces mid-sized, elongated, carrot-like beetroots. The skin is very dark, rough, slightly resembling tree bark. Dark-red, rich flesh with excellent flavour. Use both for fresh consumption and for storage. Also young leaves can be eaten. Beta vulgaris. 35seeds/pack
Sow the seeds about 2cm deep directly in the garden. Sow the seeds thinly. Can be a bit troublesome when beetroot-seeds want the right combination of oxygen, moisture and heat. If too cold and wet the seeds can rot. If too dry or too dense soil, the seeds will germinate poorly or not at all. Beetroots for storage should be sown a bit later in the season.
