Beet Lutz Green Leaf Seeds
Large sweet roots for long storage
Beet Lutz Green Leaf seeds produce large, long-storing beets known for their deep red roots, excellent keeping quality, and abundant nutrient-rich greens. This heirloom variety is prized for its impressive size without becoming woody, making it especially valuable for fall harvests and winter storage. Lutz beets thrive in full sun and loose, fertile soil, growing vigorously throughout the season and producing tender leaves that can be harvested continuously. Their robust roots maintain a smooth texture and sweet flavor, even when grown to larger sizes.
Gardeners appreciate this dependable beet for its cold tolerance, long harvest window, and versatility in soups, roasts, and fermenting.

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
