Overview
Petit Dejeuner from Renee's Garden Seeds is not one radish but a blend of two hybrid French bicolor cultivars, Gaudry II and Bamba. One gives round roots and the other cylindrical ones, both with cherry-red color over roughly the top two thirds and a white tip below. The flesh is juicy, tender-crisp and mild. It adapts widely, so sow in any cool season and harvest a mixed handful for the breakfast table.
