About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A modern, open pollinated professional variety for the bed and for pots that you can grow reliably across almost the whole season. Sora forms large, round, bright red roots and is remarkably bolt resistant, holding its quality for a long time even in summer heat and under long days, without running to flower prematurely. The flesh stays white and crisp rather than hollow or woolly, even when the root gets big. A dependable choice if you want to sow several successive batches.
Mildly spicy and juicy, staying tender even when large, resistant to bolting unlike some early ‚Saxa 3' sowings in high summer.
