French Breakfast Radish
Growing French Breakfast Radish
‘French Breakfast’ is an open-pollinated radish prized for its distinctive elongated shape, attractive coloring, and mild flavor. Bright red roots are tipped in creamy white and develop a tender, crisp texture that makes this longtime favorite as appealing as it is delicious.
Sow ‘French Breakfast’ directly in the garden about ½ to 1 inch deep and space plants 2 to 6 inches apart. Grow in full sun. This cold-tolerant variety is well suited to containers and can also handle hot, dry conditions.
Ready to harvest in about 25 days, pull roots promptly once they reach the size you prefer for the best tenderness and texture.
Mild, crisp, and attractive, ‘French Breakfast’ is excellent for fresh eating, relish trays, salads, snacking, and pickling.
One oz. contains 2,500 to 3,000 seeds. 500 seeds sows a 20-ft. row.
