FREE: 50 !!Watermelon Radish!! seeds

how cool!

Wow, these are so neat! Very different from any veggie I've ever seen. Grows fast, too! Are they nutritious?

yes they caught my eye too.... just how nutritious can a radish be any way? lol
so I looked it up!....

well I am on dial up and it is still looking giggles
from what little I could find...in the headers... it seems this used to add nutrition and fiber!

ok I found this but it is on Radishes in general not specific to this variety

Maybe some one with faster internet connection could find more specific nutritional data?

I just did some more research. What I have found is that the rabano radish was originally grown in Egypt in 2700 B.C. It started as a wild radish and its popularity spread to different areas. It's usually eaten fresh, but can be cooked or dried. (I've never actually cooked a radish.) According to some references, it has nutritional value of iron, Vit. C, potassium, folic acid, and thiamin. It can also give roughage, which helps with constipation. It took a while to find it, so I thank you MsCougar, for your efforts. I wondered if maybe you had the info. on a package or reference book. It looks like radishes do actually add to a healthy diet! :)

Thank you mooseriverannie!! That was a whole lot more than I found!

The seeds are from burpee, I have not checked out burpee.com

Who would have thought all that from the lowly radish. I know radishes grow wild here but the root is narrow and long, thiner than a pencil, kinda not worth the effort to try and harvest.

* will double the seeds if bidding goes over 200
