Beet Lutz Green Leaf Seeds

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.
