🌱 Chioggia Beet – a classic Italian heirloom with striking pink-and-white rings

Chioggia is a traditional Italian beetroot variety known for its distinctive concentric pink and white rings inside the root. When sliced, it reveals beautiful “candy stripe” patterns, making it a favourite for decorative salads and gourmet dishes.

Compared to dark red beets, Chioggia has a milder, slightly sweeter flavour, making it ideal for fresh salads, pickling, roasting or steaming. It is an early and dependable variety that matures quickly, producing smooth, round roots that adapt well to home gardens, raised beds or open-field growing.
