Notes
'Rido Red' radish (Raphanus raphanistrum 'Rido Red') is a vegetable for borders, containers, and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. It is a hybrid that matures in about 60 days, so you can pick it in two months.
Pairs well with Straight-8 cucumber, Fernleaf dill, and Common Chamomile German chamomile.
