Variety description

10 August 2026

Rote Kugel represents a group of table beetroot varieties, not a single variety. Numbered variants, including Rote Kugel 3, are often identified with the well-known Detroit variety, being its improved versions or separate breeding lines.

The root crops have a round shape, smooth skin, and dark red burgundy flesh. The flesh is characterized by juiciness; zoning is weakly expressed or absent.

The variety type is mid-early or mid-season and possesses relative resistance to bolting. The intended use of the roots is universal: they are suitable for fresh consumption, culinary processing, canning, and long-term winter storage.
