Radish ~ Black Spanish

A striking European heirloom grown since at least the 16th century, Black Spanish is prized for its dramatic appearance and robust, storage-friendly roots. Round to slightly elongated bulbs develop a rough, charcoal-black skin encasing crisp, bright white flesh. The flavor is bold and peppery when raw, mellowing to a smooth, earthy sweetness when cooked. Well-suited to cool-weather growing, this variety thrives in Canadian gardens when sown for late summer and autumn harvest. Stores exceptionally well, providing fresh, nourishing roots deep into winter. A traditional staple with both character and keeping quality. Winter Radish. 55-70 days
