Notes
'Red Ace' beet (Beta vulgaris 'Red Ace') is a vegetable for food gardens, borders, and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It grows well in cool weather and can ride out a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It takes 50 days to reach maturity, and the erect plants need little care.
Pairs well with Magenta lettuce, Moss Curled parsley, and Dukat dill.
