Beetroot Seeds – Bolthardy – The Ultimate Reliable Garden Classic (275 Seeds)

The Nation’s Favourite Beetroot Reliable, Sweet, and Bolt-Resistant.

If you only grow one beetroot, make it Bolthardy. This RHS Award of Garden Merit winner is legendary for its ability to be sown earlier in the spring than almost any other variety. Its name comes from its exceptional resistance to “bolting” (running to seed prematurely), making it the most forgiving choice for the unpredictable British weather.

Each pack contains 275 seeds, providing a massive harvest of smooth-skinned, globe-shaped roots. The flesh is a deep, consistent crimson-red with a wonderful, sweet flavour and a fine, non-woody texture. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned professional, Bolthardy delivers a uniform and high-quality crop every single time.

Why ‘Bolthardy’ is the industry leader:

• RHS Award of Garden Merit: Highly commended for its performance, flavour, and disease resistance.

• Early Sowing: Can be sown as early as March under cloches, giving you a head start on the harvest.

• Superior Texture: Renowned for staying tender and smooth, even when the roots grow a bit larger.

• Excellent Value: 275 seeds per pack allow for a long season of successional sowing.
