Detailed Information
The beet (Beta vulgaris), including the ‘Boro’ variety, is not native to one specific region. Its origins trace back to **wild sea beets (Beta vulgaris subsp. maritima)** which grow along the **coastlines of Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.**
Therefore, the likely geographical location or native region of the beet, including ‘Boro’, is broadly:
* **Coastal Europe**
* **North Africa**
* **Middle East**
Specifically, ‘Boro’ is a modern cultivar, and so its direct origin would be in a breeding program, likely in **Europe**.
Suitable in 3 gallon or larger
