Overview
Chinese Green Luobo, also known as Qingluobo, is an heirloom from northern China with daikon-like roots whose flesh is bright green. It only performs in cool weather, so sow in late summer for a fall crop rather than in spring. The green flesh is eye-catching sliced raw, and it also holds up in cooked dishes. Give it deep, loose soil for well-formed roots.
