Radish D'Avignon (Raphanus sativus)
This pretty elongated radish, red with a white tip, is an ancestral variety that comes from the south of France. An ideal vegetable for filling holes in the vegetable garden in the spring, it also deserves a place of choice there. Favorite of beginner gardeners, resow as many times as you want to harvest all season long!
