Beetroot ‘Alvro Mono’ is an early-maturing, mono-germ variety of beetroot (Beta vulgaris) valued for its uniform, smooth, round roots and reliable performance in the garden. This variety is specially bred so that each seed cluster produces only one seedling, reducing the need for thinning and making sowing easier and more precise.
Product Description
Beetroot Alvro Mono is a fast-growing organic beetroot variety that produces neat, globe-shaped roots with rich crimson flesh and a sweet, earthy flavour. The mono-germ seed structure ensures that only a single plant develops from each seed, allowing for uniform spacing and improved crop management.
This variety is ideal for early harvesting and can be pulled as tender baby beets when young or left to mature for full-sized roots. The smooth, round beets are excellent for bunching, fresh salads, roasting, boiling, or pickling whole.
