Product Description
Now for something completely different, we introduce Watermelon Winter Radish. This unique and intriguing newcomer to our lineup is actually an heirloom Daikon radish variety. Like a radish that has turned in on itself, this white-skinned variety boasts a bright red interior that really catches the eye. The flesh is both tender and crisp, and makes an excellent addition to salads or crudité spreads. When harvested early, the flavor is mild with a light peppery tang. Left in the garden to harvest in the hotter months, the taste can turn bitter. We recommend this wonderful variety to anyone who thinks they don't like radishes. Even those who call themselves radish haters, love Watermelon radish for its beautiful appearance and sweet and spicy flavor combination. 50-60 DAYS.
