- A traditional Chinese radish, growing up to 10cm (4") across.
A traditional type of large Chinese radish, popularly used in oriental stir-fries and salads.
It is known in China as the 'Beauty Heart' Radish because of its attractive pink flesh
which has a sweet, slightly nutty taste. Unusually the flavour becomes more delicate as the roots mature.
Approx. 100 seeds
Outdoors, sow thinly, June-August, where they are to crop, 1.5cm (½") deep,
directly into finely-prepared, rich, well-dug soil, which has already been watered.
Allow 23cm (9") between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 7-14 days.
Water well until plants are established.
Thin, August to September, only if plants are overcrowded.
Keep moist, as dry conditions may cause tough roots.
Harvest: September-November. Lift roots in November and store in a cool, airy place.
Usually the flavour becomes milder as roots mature. Known in China as the 'Beauty Heart' radish, it can be cooked like a turnip, stir-fried or eaten raw.
