A cross between a round and longer type, producing oval-shaped, purple-and-white roots. With its peppery tang it is perfect for salads and is fast-cropping and ideal for growing in-between other veg.
Growing Information
For container growing sow thinly direct into the compost. For raised beds try sowing in 30cm (12″) squares, sowing a few seeds every 7.5cm (3″) 1.3cm (½”) deep. Germination 4-7 days. As the seedlings emerge, remove spare seedlings to leave one per station (thus you will have 16 plants per square). Alternatively for garden growing, sow in rows 23cm (9″) apart. Sowing – Cropping: 4-6 weeks.
