Round Black Radish


HEIRLOOM 1824 in US, 1500s in Europe. A fine variation on the black Spanish radish that has been around since the 1500s. The large roots are 4" across with an attractive black skin while the flesh is a pure creamy white. It is mildly pungent and can be used for a variety of cooked dishes as well as fresh with beer. Round Black even stores well in a root cellar. 33 days.
