'French Breakfast' radish (Raphanus raphanistrum 'French Breakfast') is a vegetable for borders, containers, and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. Cool weather suits it, and it can take a light frost. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. It is grown for its crisp, edible roots. The seed is open-pollinated, and the roots mature in about 25 days.
Pairs well with Peione parsley, Persian basil, and Supersweet 100 tomato.
