Packet of Watermelon Radish Red Meat SeedsRed Meat Radish is a cold-hardy variety perfect for autumn sowing. With white skin tinged with green and a vibrant red interior resembling watermelon flesh, this Chinese type variety is a true standout in the garden.

The large, round radishes offer a mild, sweet flavour with less spice than traditional radishes. Ideal for raw slicing or stir-frying, they add a pop of colour to any dish.

Not suitable for spring sowing, but perfect for overwintering, this variety thrives in cooler weather.

Versatile hardneck garlic. Some French consider this to be the best tasting of all French garlic.

Can be planted autumn or early spring but dislikes wet conditions.
