Red Meat (watermelon radish) is a gardening curiosity. The outside is unremarkable — modest green-white bulb. But cut it open and bright pink, melon-like flesh appears. Hence the name. Mid-season variety, mildly hot-sweet flavour.
Growing
Sow in April–August. Row spacing 25 cm, plant spacing 5–10 cm, sowing depth 1–2 cm.
For decorative salads thinly sliced, sushi-style presentation, Asian cuisine. Always a hit at dinner parties — guests won't believe it's a radish.
