Mr Fothergills Radish Amethyst 250 Seeds

Radish – Amethyst

This is a novel and tasty summer radish which has unusual purple skin contrasting against the crisp white flesh. It has a true radish flavour and the roots are slow to go ‘pithy’.

Sow outdoors thinly, from February to September, where they are to crop, 1.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained, fertile soil, which has already been watered. Allow 23cm between rows. Early sowings, especially those in February, will benefit from cloche protection. Seedlings usually appear in 7-10 days. Water well until plants are established. Thin only if plants are overcrowded. Harvest from April to October.
