‘Red Flesh’ Mild Tricolour Winter Radish

This is a beautiful winter radish which is really very mild – mild enough to use use raw in salads, or as a side-vegetable in its own right. The flesh has this amazing red-purple centre, which shades out to the bright green outer layer, and then an almost white skin; we cut it in thin slices and spread them out on a plate as you would serve carrot sticks or cucumber. Sow in late spring or summer: it withstands cold weather, standing well in the ground without damage.

Dual-purpose – use it in salads, or cooked as a winter radish.
