A wonderful, sweet heirloom from Denmark, famous for slicing with its long, cylindrical roots. It is a popular choice for processing, as its roots make much more uniform slices than round beets and its skin slips more easily after cooking. We love this variety for juicing, as its tapered roots are easier to feed into the machine. This tender and sweet variety is also known as \"Butter Slicer\" because of its wonderful texture. It is rich in antioxidants and top notch for home canning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e To grow Cylindra beets successfully, plant them in full sun with well-draining, sandy-loam soil.
