Characteristics of the White Beauty round white radish
The White Beauty round white radish, Raphanus sativus, is a mid-season variety that can be grown from spring to autumn. White on the inside and out, this perfectly round root vegetable has juicy, pleasantly piquant flesh. Delicious pan-fried or raw as an aperitif, this radish of every month can be enjoyed as a condiment or accompaniment to rich dishes. The young leaves are also edible, raw or cooked like spinach.
Sowing White Beauty round white radish
Sow this variety directly in the ground, from February to October. All-month radishes require loose soil, frequent watering and temperatures between 15 and 21°C. Its small size makes it easy to grow in pots on balconies and terraces.
Sow seeds in the vegetable garden, in rows 30 cm apart. Thin to 5 or 8 cm along the row. In summer, plant in a cool, damp, shady spot. In spring and autumn, choose a warm, sheltered location. For cultivation in February, it's best to sow under a frame. Water regularly.
In the vegetable garden, radishes grow harmoniously alongside many other vegetables: lettuce, carrots, cabbage and cucumbers.
Harvesting and storing White Beauty radishes
White Beauty round white radishes are harvested from March to November. This variety is harvested 30 to 40 days after sowing, when the root is not too large and the tops are a beautiful green color. Its pungent taste is accentuated by dry spells and late harvests.
Unlike winter radishes, every-month radishes don't keep long in cellars or silos. The root is usually eaten immediately after harvesting, raw or cooked. It will keep for a week in the refrigerator crisper, and for a few months when prepared pickle-style.
