The Mooli Radish variety "Neptune" has pristine white, crisp-fleshed, mild-flavored roots that can reach a length of 25 cm (10 inches). This mooli radish is best planted for autumn and winter production because it is completely winter resilient. The roots can be lifted and preserved the same way as other root crops and stay in pristine condition for a very long time. This delectable cultivar exhibits great bolting resistance. They are growing in popularity because of their fresh, mild flavour and pristine white roots that won't turn bitter. Height: 45cm (18"). Spread: 30cm (12"). Culinary note: Some parts of these flowers are edible. For more details about edible flowers click here. Companion planting: Try growing radishes with mint to deter flea beetles, which chew irregular holes in the leaves.
