Developed from the variety 'Forono'. Roll-shaped beet type, uniformly dark red through, gives uniform slices when processed. Culture duration slightly shorter than Robuschka. For summer and autumn harvest. Pleasant, mildly sweet taste. (Bingenheimer)
Non hybrid
Not frost resistant
The bed of beet should not be freshly fertilized, and the soil should be well loosened. After emergence, the beet plants need to be separated. If there are prolonged periods of drought after sowing and in the first weeks, water. After that, the roots of beet can very well provide themselves with water.
