Description

Radish 'China White' (Raphanus sativus var. longipinnatus), also known as Chinese White Winter or White Rose, is a historic open-pollinated winter heirloom daikon originating from East Asia. Prized for its large size, remarkable cold hardiness, and mild flavor, it produces long, smooth, cylindrical roots measuring 7 to 9 inches in length. The skin and interior flesh are a clean, brilliant white, delivering a juicy, dense, and exceptionally crisp texture. Milder and sweeter than smaller spring radishes, China White is an outstanding choice for late summer planting, fall harvests, long-term winter cellar storage, fresh slaws, pickling, and traditional stir-fries.
