Jannis is a round to oval beetroot with a crown which is set back delicately. Because of its attractive shape, smooth skin, fine foliage and the fast development, it is specially suited for selling fresh in bunches as well for Baby Leaf production. Good keeping qualities. Mild in flavour, good for use in salad. Also available as precision seed (calibrated).
