Description

Vintage Gaudry is a classic early French radish with vibrant red skin and a clean white tip. Crisp, juicy, pleasantly peppery. Ready in about 25 to 30 days. One of the simplest and most rewarding crops for beginners.

Quick growing and reliable, this variety resists hollowing so you get consistently solid roots. Part of the Vintage 1928 range with the original Franchi catalogue artwork on the packet. Sow little and often for a steady supply.
