Beets are most often grown for their edible, fleshy root. Most are round or oval, but there are some types that are long and cylindrical. The root color is usually a deep magenta or purple-red; white and gold cultivars also exist. Beet and radish roots are similar in shape, but beets are usually larger and deeper in color than radishes.Photo courtesy of National Garden Bureau |
