Crosby’s Egyptian (Special) Beets 
Beet, Crosby’s Egyptian (Special) 
For critical growers, we recommend this stock highly. It is extra early, dark red, with 
a medium-sized top, making it a fine variety for coldframes and outside use. We have not 
found another Beet that will equal this for bunching throughout the entire season. The 
fact that it does not crack under trying conditions is really important for bunching purposes. 
It has a fine globe shape.
