Radish 'Rudolf' Organic

Product Description

Nothing says spring in the garden like a quick-to-harvest radish. 'Rudolf' has uniform 1"-round crunch roots that resist getting pithy when grown in the cool weather of spring or fall. Radish greens are edible, too, and they pack a punch in salads but are also delicious sautéed. A 2008 Royal Horticultural Society award winner. Seeds are pelletized with an organic coating for easy handling.
