Growing Information

Growing Ruby Queen Beet

‘Ruby Queen’ is an award-winning beet and 1957 All-America Selections Winner prized for its sweet flavor, uniform shape, and deep red interior with no visible streaking. Smooth, globe-shaped roots develop small taproots and are topped by compact, dark green foliage, making this variety especially attractive for bunching and preserving.

Sow ‘Ruby Queen’ directly in the garden about ½ inch deep during the cooler temperatures of spring or fall. Space plants 2 to 4 inches apart and grow in full sun. Plants typically reach 10 to 14 inches tall and perform best in loose, well-drained soil with consistent moisture as the roots develop.

Ready to harvest in about 60 days, begin pulling the 1½-inch roots once they reach your preferred size while they are still firm, smooth, and tender.

Sweet, tender, and versatile, ‘Ruby Queen’ is excellent for canning, pickling, bunching, roasting, and fresh cooking.
