Meet the showstopper of the root world. Watermelon Radish boasts a lime-green exterior with crisp white flesh and a vivid magenta heart — as striking on the plate as it is in the garden. Mild, sweet, and slightly peppery, these baseball-sized roots add color and crunch to salads, slaws, and pickles.
Sow directly in the garden for a late fall harvest when the weather cools — that’s when their colors and flavor shine brightest.
