Instead of the familiar round globe, Cylindra produces long, cylindrical dark red roots — 5 to 8 inches long and 2 inches thick — that are sweet, tender, and ideal for slicing into uniform rounds. The cylindrical shape means more usable root per plant and more even slices for pickling, canning, and cooking. The leaves are a little sweeter than other beets and make lovely salad greens. Produces more in the same space. Perfect for container gardening and raised beds. 59–70 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Grow Cylindra?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCylindrical shape for uniform slicing\u003c\/strong\u003e — perfect rounds every time for pickling and canning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduces more in the same space\u003c\/strong\u003e — efficient use of garden real estate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweet, tender, excellent quality\u003c\/strong\u003e — dark red roots 5–8 inches long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweeter leaves than other beets\u003c\/strong\u003e — lovely as salad greens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect for containers and raised beds\u003c\/strong\u003e — compact and productive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpen-pollinated heirloom\u003c\/strong\u003e — save seed year after year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirect sow outdoors 4–6 weeks before last frost or in late summer for fall harvest.
