BT184A - Avalanche
This 2015 All America Selections Award Winner is a pure white beet with very mild flavour. Plant Avalanche beet seeds for beets that are still very sweet, but lack the earthy beet flavour. They also have no bitter aftertaste and they are delicious raw or cooked. Early maturing and very uniform for an open pollinated variety. Avalanche beets have good tolerance to Cercospera. Harvest the beets at 8cm (3") in diameter for the best crunchy texture. Use these white beets in order to add novelty to farm stands and CSA boxes. They also work really well in the home garden, of course.
Matures in 50 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)

How To Grow
Beets are incredibly healthy eating. Both the roots and the leaves are an excellent source of antioxidants, minerals, and vitamin C. They also contain betaine, a compound that is essential for cardiovascular health. Eat them raw, cooked, pickled – you can even make beet chips! Most important, it is very easy to grow beets from seed.
