# Radish recipes
The radish is an edible root vegetable belonging to the family ‘Brassicaceae’. Radishes come in a number of varieties, varying in size and colour. Summer radishes tend to mature rapidly reaching maturity in three to four weeks. Tilling the soil helps the radish seeds grow.
There are a number of different radish varieties. Some of the more common radish seeds include:
Daikon Speedy radish seeds - Crunchy and nutritious with a pleasant peppery taste.
French Breakfast radish seeds – One of the fastest growing radishes. Crisp flavour.
German Salad radish seeds - Attractive rosy-red radishes. Great with salads.
Jolly Speedy radish seeds – As the name implies, ready to eat within 6 to 12 weeks.
