RADISH-EASTER EGG- MIX

This packet contains a mix of brightly coloured varieties of radish that live up to the name of Easter Egg. Red, white, purple and pink radishes with shiny bright skins that will look absolutly fabulous in the salad mix or used as table decorations. This is probably the best choice you can make for getting the children interested in gardening. They mature quickly in 30 days or less and still maintain a firm mild flavour even when eaten raw. Radishes are a great way to start young children off with gardening. They are very easy to grow, will grow in almost any conditions and mature at a very fast, exciting rate. The seed should be planted 0.5-1mm deep as close as 2cm apart and in rows 10-15cm apart. They need good watering to prevent pithiness in hot conditions. Radishes can be planted all year round in any place in Australia. The fact that they emerge so very quickly makes them great for planting with vegetables that are slow to emerge as the radish seedling break up the surface and mark the rows where the other plants will emerge. EACH PACKET CONTAINS 2.0 g THE APPROXIMATE NUMBER OF SEEDS IS 200
