Rutabagas - Laurentian

~100 Seeds

Laurentian Rutabagas are a classic Canadian heirloom variety known for their sweet, fine-textured flesh and excellent cold tolerance. With their smooth, purple-shouldered roots and golden-yellow interiors, these rutabagas are a staple for hearty winter meals. 

They thrive in cool weather, developing their best flavour after a light frost, which enhances their natural sweetness. Plus, they store exceptionally well, making them a great choice for home gardeners who want fresh, homegrown produce well into the winter months.
