    Radish are really quick and easy plants to grow. This variety produces small round salad radishes with a red neck and white base. They are slow to go 'woody' and can be sown every couple of weeks to guarantee a regular supply for your salads. The flowers are edible and can be used to add a bit of a kick to salads. When you pull them up don't forget the leaves can be used as 'greens' too.

  • Growing Instructions:
    Sow outside - Direct into soil February to June and/or September to October
    Sow thinly, 2.5cm apart in rows spaced at 15cm apart

    Harvest: within 3-4 weeks of sowing.
