Beet Berry, Strawberry Spinach (60 days)

Chenopodium capitatum

A wonderful garden novelty, this spinach relative bears its seeds in hundreds of ½” bright red, juicy fruits that are mildly sweet. Nothing like it! Grows well in summer heat and also provides a nice rosette of dark green toothed leaves.  Leaves are spinach-green, triangular, and bite-sized with toothed margins, borne in an open rosette. A heat lover for summer salad.
