Radish Seeds - French Breakfast 3 - The Heritage Classic (1,200 Seeds)

Arguably the most famous radish variety in the world, French Breakfast 3 is a staple for any kitchen garden.Despite the name, you don't have to eat them for breakfast—though their crisp texture and mild, peppery flavor make them a refreshing addition to any meal. This RHS Award-winning variety is a "Gardener's Choice" favorite, known for its reliable performance and beautiful oblong shape.

Each radish features a striking gradient of bright scarlet-red with a clean, blunt white tip. They are exceptionally fast-growing and easy to manage, making them the perfect choice for beginners, children, or those looking to maximize their harvest in small spaces.

Sowing & Growing Instructions

Sowing Indoors (Under Glass):

  • When: Late January to March.

  • Method: Sow in modular trays or greenhouse borders for an early spring crunch. Maintain a temperature of 15–20°C for quick, even germination.

Sowing Outdoors:

  • When: March to September.

  • Method: Sow thinly in shallow drills 1.5cm deep, with 15–30cm between rows. Radishes do not transplant well, so sow them directly where they are to grow.

Top Tip: For the best flavor and texture, harvest when they are no bigger than your thumb. Water regularly during dry spells to prevent them from becoming "woody" or overly spicy.
