Radish Purple Plum Seeds
UNTREATED AND OPEN POLLINATED SEEDS
Raphanus sativus
Bring vibrant colour and refreshing crunch to your garden with Purple Plum Radish seeds. Ready to harvest in just 30-35 days, this unique variety produces small, round to oval radishes with smooth violet to purple-pink skin and firm, crisp white flesh. The flavour is sweet, mild and never pithy, making it perfect for fresh salads, pickling, or light stir-fries. When cooked, the flesh softens into a savoury-sweet, mellow taste.
Not just the roots—the leafy greens are edible too, offering a peppery, grassy flavour ideal for sautés or as a nutritious addition to soups and dals.
Purple Plum Radish thrives in cooler months (October to February) and prefers well-drained sandy-loam or loamy soil enriched with organic compost. It is a hardy, fast-growing root crop that adapts well to pots, terrace gardens, or open beds. Ensure regular watering for crisp, tender roots and harvest young for the sweetest flavour.
A stunning heirloom that’s as beautiful as it is delicious, Purple Plum Radish seeds are a must-grow for any kitchen garden.
