Boltardy is a reliable variety of beetroot producing globular roots with deep red sweet flesh.
Boltardy is the best choice for early spring sowings as the roots are extremely resistant to bolting (hence the name!).
Sow Boltardy from March to July very thinly in drills 3cm deep in rows 30cm part. When the seedlings are large enough to handle thin them out gradually to 10cm apart. The later thinnings will be large enough to use in a salad.
Pull the beetroot when the roots are 2cm in diameter or larger. In mid autumn lift the remaining roots twist off the tops and use or store.
Delicious roasted, pickled and grated raw in salads.
