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.
