Overview
Misato Rose is a hybrid Japanese winter radish with a plain green-crowned white exterior and a rose to magenta interior that shows only when cut. Roots are round, 2 to 4 inches, with mild, slightly sweet, crisp flesh, and they keep well. It is for late-summer or early-fall sowing, since cool weather intensifies the pink color; thin to 4 to 6 inches and lift before a hard freeze. Slice thin to show off the color in salads, slaws, and pickles.
