Easter Egg Blend Radish Vegetable Garden Seeds
Easter Egg Blend Radish Growing Habits
Easter Egg Blend Radish non-GMO seeds (Raphanus sativus) grow smaller than winter varieties and are one of the first colorful cool season veggies to pick in your garden. Easter Egg garden radishes are fast-maturing and produce their roots in cooler temperatures, while developing a bright variety of small fuschia, white, violet and light-pink bulbs above the soil. This heirloom radish grows green leafy stems and can tolerate a light frost. Their heirloom radish flavor will provide a fresh, sweet and spicy bite as soon as they reach maturity. Late summer-sown radish can be harvested in winter in northern regions and reseed by next spring.
Various Uses for Easter Egg Blend Radish Vegetable Seed
Around 28 days from the sowing date, you can pick your radish plants by hand and gently shake off the soil. By 20 days, the edible green stems and leaves of radish plants can be cooked similarly to collard greens or kale. You can also eat Easter Egg Spring Radish plants fresh by adding some crisp slices to salads. Fresh or cooked, spring and fall radish crops are versatile. Pickled radishes are a colorful and fun way to enjoy your harvested radish.
Benefits of Easter Egg Blend Radish Vegetable Seed
