    Description

    Radish 'Early Scarlet Globe' (Raphanus sativus) is a historic open-pollinated heirloom dating back to the early 20th century. Highly prized by market gardeners and home growers for its extreme speed, high uniformity, and bright appearance, it produces classic round to slightly olive-shaped roots measuring 1 inch in diameter. The smooth skin displays a brilliant, glowing scarlet-red color, covering solid, crisp white flesh. Offering a mild, peppery flavor and satisfying crunch, Early Scarlet Globe matures in as little as 20 to 23 days, making it one of the absolute fastest crops for early spring harvests, garden bed borders, and quick succession plantings.

    Good to know
    • Ultra-rapid maturity (~20–23 days), yielding crisp fresh radishes faster than almost any other garden vegetable
    • Short, sturdy tops permit high-density planting between slower-growing crops like tomatoes, peppers
    • Sweet, mild crunch resists turning hollow or pithy when harvested promptly at 1 inch size
    • Fast-growing roots must be harvested immediately upon reaching maturity to prevent skin splitting
    • Hot midsummer weather triggers rapid bolting, causing roots to become woodier, significantly sharper in flavor
