About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A bolt resistant summer radish for continuous sowing from spring into late summer. Rex forms long, white, smooth roots and stays in the ground remarkably long even through longer days and warmth without bolting prematurely or going pithy. You resow it every few weeks and then you have fresh radish all season. A reliable, high yielding variety that makes planning your beds easy.
Mild and savoury with a fine heat; the flesh stays firm and juicy, equally good for salad and for a cold platter.
