Rat's Tail Radish (Raphanus sativus var. caudatus)
3.78 $ 3.78 $ 3.7800000000000002 CAD
Also called "Snake radish", this radish is a very old variety originating from Indonesia. It does not develop a root, but is eaten by... the tail! It is actually the aerial pods that are edible and look like rat tails. Tender and tasty (pods, not rat tails!), slightly spicy, they can be eaten raw, cooked or marinated.

BOTANICAL INFORMATION
Latin name: Raphanus sativus var. caudatus
Common names: Snake radish
English: Rat-tail
Family: Brassicaceae

MAINTENANCE AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
Radish is usually a cold climate crop and is best planted in the spring. On the other hand, the Rattail radish likes to be planted early, but loves the heat. It will flower when the hot weather arrives in August!
Gournay winter purple radish (Raphanus sativus)
3.78 $ 3.78 $ 3.7800000000000002 CAD
This winter radish produces a long purple root, which can reach up to 25 cm in length. Its flesh is white, juicy and less spicy in taste than most radishes. It can be kept for months in a cool place, in cellars or cold rooms. It can be eaten raw, in carpaccio, in salads, marinated or roasted. Don't forget that the leaves are also edible! This old variety comes from France, more precisely from Gournay-sur-Marne in the department of Seine-Saint-Denis, hence its name. Several market gardeners cultivated here for the Paris markets. There is a mention of this variety in a work dating from the 19th century (Les Plantes potagères, by Vilmorin-Andrieux).
