AnnualDetroit Dark Red beet is a classic heirloom variety known for its deep red, globe-shaped roots and excellent flavor. This beet matures in about 55-60 days, making it a reliable choice for gardeners. Plant in well-drained, fertile soil with full sun exposure. Sow seeds 1 inch apart and thin seedlings to 3-4 inches to allow for proper root development. Consistent watering is essential for optimal growth and sweetness. The vibrant green tops are also edible, perfect for salads and sautéing. Detroit Dark Red beets are versatile and ideal for roasting, boiling, or pickling, offering both high yields and robust flavor.
Sprouted quick and grew to nice size
After fencing these guys in - we enjoyed them as much as the deer!
Super delicious, perfect on a salad !
2024 was a good beet year, all varieties did well, but DDR was the favorite! Amazing color, even for a beet....
Germinated quickly and good sized beets
I am not a beet lover but my Dad had been talking about the pickled beets that his grandmother had made when he was a kid. The description of the Detroit Deep Red Beet sounded closest. I grew them and then followed the pickled beet recipe from the USDA. He said that it was exactly what he remembered and the best that he had ever had. I would include a photo but he has eaten them all.

I ordered two Natchez Blackberry plugs. If I had known the quality I would have ordered more! There was great care taken into consideration when it came to shipping these live plants. They arrived fully intact with not even a broken leaf. I'm hoping to expand my berry patch with thornless berries. Im tired of the old way of leaving sweat and tears in the berry patch. I'll definitely order more if given the chance.
Trying something I heard about. Planted sweet peas in the extra space around my asparagus. So far, so good.
These San Marzano tomatoes have the most robust stems of all my tomato plants. First time tomato gardener but I have high hopes for this sauce tomato cultivar! I am already rooting a clone because it is doing so well. Can't wait for the fruit!
I took a gamble and purchased 10
blueberry plants from MIgardener this year - I am so beyond impressed with the quality.
I’ve had these in my sunroom since I received them, and haven’t even gotten to repotting them yet. They’re already growing flowers! I will purchase all seeds and plants from MIgardener from now on!!
All of the potatoes are growing beautifully! I am please with the purchasez
