Product description

Beetroot 'Boltardy' is a renowned variety known for its ability to resist bolting, making it a reliable choice for UK gardeners. This variety produces smooth, deep red roots that are not only visually appealing but also boast a sweet, earthy flavour. Ideal for a range of culinary uses, from salads to roasts, 'Boltardy' is a must-have for those looking to add a versatile vegetable to their garden. The roots are best harvested when they reach about 5-7cm in diameter, ensuring they remain tender and flavourful.

Sowing Beetroot 'Boltardy' seeds is straightforward and rewarding. Start sowing outdoors from March to July in well-prepared soil that is free from stones and clumps. Once the seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them out to about 10cm apart to give each plant enough space to develop properly. Consistent watering is essential to prevent the roots from becoming woody and to maintain their sweet flavour.

For best results, harvest your beetroot from June to October. The roots should be pulled when they are small and tender for the most enjoyable taste. Regular harvesting encourages the plants to produce more, so you can enjoy a continuous supply of fresh beetroots throughout the season. With proper care, Beetroot 'Boltardy' will thrive in most UK gardens, providing a bountiful and delicious crop.
