Description

The smooth, refined heirloom for perfect table beets. ‘Ruby Queen’ forms uniform, round roots with rich red flesh that remains tender and sweet even when grown large. Its flavor is mild, without the strong earthiness of older strains, making it ideal for roasting, canning, or fresh eating.

Compact tops are easy to manage in tight garden spaces, and roots mature early—ready to harvest in just under two months. The interior color stays vivid red through cooking, holding its beauty as well as its taste.

Introduced in 1957, ‘Ruby Queen’ quickly gained a reputation for its exceptional texture and sweetness. A dependable beet that lives up to its royal name.
