Seeds from High Mowing Organic Seeds. Great taste, good texture even when larger, pretty pale pink skin that isn't too thick or tough. This was the first time and they'll be in the regular rotation for sure. Only gave it 4 stars for taste as I prefer a hotter radish, but these had a decent bite and excellent otherwise taste. No cultivation trouble- they did fine in moderate clay, harvested 1-2" though a few larger still with good taste.

For me, it's excellent. Very mild taste, I can't eat bitter taste radishes. Little round shape, so if you have heavy clay soil, it's good choice. They are really pink. I got from rareseeds.com

Yep, no pithiness. Just nice pretty perfectly round gems that were easy to clean and make nice for market. I will grow again. This and purple olive which I can't find here. They were both great.
