Beet Chioggia Guardsmark, named after the charming Venetian town, is a treasured Italian heirloom variety that has been cultivated across the Mediterranean since the 1840s. These Non-GMO seeds produce beets prized for their crisp texture and striking red and white candycane-striped roots, making them a standout addition to salads, garnishes, and pickling projects. This cool-weather, open-pollinated variety thrives in temperate climates and is celebrated for both its visual appeal and exceptional flavor. The beets mature in approximately 60 days with a reliable germination rate near 80%, offering consistent results for gardeners. Our sustainable seeds come packaged in environmentally responsible materials that are reusable, recyclable, and climate friendly, supporting eco-conscious cultivation of this unique and historically significant beet.
