Golden Detroit Beet

‘Golden Detroit’ Beet is a bright golden variety known for its sweet, mild flavor and tender texture. The roots develop a rich gold color with very little bleeding, making them especially attractive for fresh dishes and cooked preparations.

Sow ‘Golden Detroit’ directly in the garden during the cooler temperatures of spring or fall. Plant in loose, well-drained soil and keep the seedbed consistently moist while seedlings establish. Thin plants as they grow to give the roots enough room to size up evenly.

Harvest the roots once they reach the desired size. ‘Golden Detroit’ maintains a tender texture even when allowed to grow larger, giving gardeners a little more flexibility at harvest time. The greens are also edible and can be picked young for salads or cooked like other beet greens.

‘Golden Detroit’ beets are excellent for fresh eating, salads, roasting, cooking, and slicing.
