Carolina Ruby

Favorable with Beauregard and was superior
to Jewel in University trials. Yield similar to Beauregard for the U.S. #1 and canner grades and slightly higher for jumbo grades. Harvest dates typically 3-5 days earlier than Beauregard. Roots store well without excessive weight loss from storage rots or dehydration. Baked roots have uniform color, and moist smooth flesh, and good flavor. Slow to sprout so don’t expect early shipment.
