French Breakfast has endured in gardens for over 100 years because of its wonderful, delicate flavor. This spring radish grows best during the cool periods of spring and fall but will also withstand some summer heat! Looks incredible on a vegetable platter. Fun for kids to grow!
The slim, eye-catching deep pink roots with bright white tips are really crunchy with a cool, mild flavor. Excellent eating quality. A French classic with oblong, blunt-tipped shape and healthy radish spiciness. Try them raw with butter and salt, or butter poached with sourdough bread and fresh herbs.
Great for salads and snacking—and the oblong shape makes them perfect for dipping. Green tops make a spicy addition to salads and stir-fry. A quick-growing, cool weather crop, French Breakfast Radish is a great addition to spring and fall gardens. Can be grown in containers. 28 days.

Harvest when radish is 3" - 4" long. If allowed to grow bigger, French Breakfast will get pithy and hot.
