Purple Plum - Radish Seeds

Purple Plum radishes are a reliable garden favorite with beautiful purple skins and firm white flesh. Their sweet, mild flavor stays consistent all season, and they never turn pithy. Perfect for salads, snacks, or pickling, they’re easy to grow and ready to harvest in no time.

GROWING TIPS

Plant spring radish seeds directly in the garden starting 4-6 weeks before average last spring frost. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 50-65 degrees. Since they mature so quickly, spring radishes are often planted with carrots and parsnips, between slowly growing cole crops, or between small tomato and pepper plants. Plant every 2-3 weeks for a continued harvest until about 4 weeks after average last frost. Can be sown again in early fall. Plant winter radish varieties 6-8 weeks before average first frost.
