Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), a member of the Chenopodiaceae family
Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), a member of the Chenopodiaceae family, is a plant whose root contains a high concentration of sucrose. It is grown commercially for sugar.
Canesugar has to be converted by the digestive juices into fruit sugar, before the body can absorb it, but the sugar present in the Beetroot is already in the more easily assimilated form, thus making the Beet a valuable food.
Beetroot: sow in March at 10cm (4in) spacings. The young leaves can be used as 'spinach'. Follow these with quick growing crops of late summer salads.
Broad beans: sow from February at 20cm (8in) spacings.

The Carrot, Beetroot, and the like are swollen tap-roots.
The ordinary tap-root is typically seen in a germinating Broad Bean. It is a long root that grows straight down into the ground on a line with the main stem.
These tubers are brown in colour on the outside and yellowish inside, and resemble a beetroot or sweet potato. Tubers are usually connected to one another by thin underground stems (i.e. rhizomes) that resemble roots.
