China Rose Winter Radish
Certified Organic
Raphanus sativus
These beauties store well into the winter.
These long, cylindrical radishes sort of resemble carrots, but that's where the similarities end. Best when planted under slightly cooler conditions (think late-summer), the China Rose Winter radish is great for long-term cold-weather storage. Vibrant, red skin gives way to white, firm flesh. Very crisp, the China Rose Winter is excellent eaten raw--a great fresh addition to cold-weather palates.
