What is Round Black Spanish radish?
Round Black Spanish is an heirloom winter radish with rough black skin and firm, pungent white flesh. It is larger and much sharper than spring salad radishes, and it stores exceptionally well.
When should I plant Round Black Spanish radish?
As a winter radish it is best sown in mid to late summer for a fall harvest. It needs a longer cool spell to size up than spring radishes do.
How long does Round Black Spanish take to mature?
Allow about 55 to 65 days. Harvest the roots at 3 to 4 inches across before hard frost, once the weather has turned cool.
How should I space Round Black Spanish radishes?
Because the roots grow large, sow 1/2 inch deep and thin seedlings to 4 to 6 inches apart in rows about 12 inches apart. Crowding leads to small, misshapen roots.

Yes, this is its specialty. The dense roots keep for months in a cool, humid root cellar or in the refrigerator, making it a favorite for winter cooking.
How many Round Black Spanish radish seeds come in a packet?
