The table beet of the Royal Purple variety is a mid-season, high-yielding variety characterized by a compact leaf rosette and round root crops weighing from 310 to 360 grams. The period from germination to harvest is 95-110 days, allowing for a quality harvest within optimal timing. The beet flesh is dark red, uniform, ring-free, juicy, and tender, making this variety particularly attractive for various culinary purposes.
One of the key features of the variety is its resistance to Cercospora, which contributes to plant health and harvest stability. The beet contains no coarse fibers or rings and does not lose its saturated color during cooking, preserving its attractive appearance and taste qualities after thermal processing.
The Royal Purple variety is recommended for fresh consumption as well as for preparing vinaigrettes, borscht, beet soup, and other dishes. Due to good storability, the root crops can be stored for up to 8 months, making this variety one of the best for long-term storage and use throughout the season.
