Overview
Mister Red is a Seminis hybrid in the Fireball class, released in 1998. Roots are oval to globe shaped with a deep, even red color, carried on a short to medium top that suits bunching. It tolerates Fusarium, and its planting window runs from early spring through late fall, so a few rows can be sown every couple of weeks. Harvest promptly once roots fill out.
