This cultivar reminds me of a pink version of the White Icicle. It is more uniform in growth, with each radish relatively smooth and uniform. Many less crooked roots than Icicle. About the same pungency as Icicle ( mildly hot) It is doing well here as a spring radish, but like Icicle will probably be larger in fall plantings.
