AnnualFormanova beet is a distinctive variety renowned for its elongated, cylindrical roots and vibrant red color. It is also known as "butter slicer" due to its wonderful texture. This beet matures in about 55-65 days, offering a sweet, earthy flavor perfect for slicing and uniform cooking. Due to their unique shape, Formanova beets are easy to harvest, reducing waste and maximizing yield. The nutritious greens can be harvested young for salads or cooked dishes, making Formanova a versatile addition to any garden.
I haven't planted yet..I am going to plant this week end and see how far I can get before hard winter sets in.
I haven't used these, yet, but all the seeds I've bought from here have been great! In fact, unless it's something he doesn't sell, I buy all my seeds from MIgardener. (Jimmy Nardello peppers...hint, hint).
Love these beets for steaming and pickling. Easy to jar when slices are more even.
I grew these last year in Mid Michigan and canned lots of sliced beets, also some pickled ones. They came out of the ground looking beautiful. Underground insects didn't bother them and they were perfect for canning after a good wash. You can't go wrong with this variety.
Excellent price great for canning. Love this brand!

So far, everything we have purchased has had an almost 100% germination rate. And what sprouts has grown quickly and strongly. We are now big fans of MIgardener seeds!
I’ve had issues trying to germinate seeds bought from big box stores. Come to find out they are old and a waste of money. MI Gardener seeds are fresh, germinate quickly and stay good for years. My Pablo lettuce is still growing and I look forward to harvesting and eating it!
Love this green tomato! I almost missed the ripeness window because I didn’t realize that it would get the sweetest tinge of pink. (I thought it was a red tomato that was just starting to turn color, until I squeezed it!) The flavor is fresh and mild and sweet—and the color is beautiful.
Finally blooming this September to the point I’m harvesting to create soothing balms with glorious colored blooms!
I had great success with the Red Acre Cabbage. Every plant produced a nice sized head, and each weighed at least 2 pounds. The taste is great and slightly sweet. I will definitely grow this again.
