Description

Radish 'White Icicle' (Raphanus sativus), also known simply as Icicle Radish, is a classic open-pollinated heirloom dating back to the 16th century. Producing slender, tapered roots reaching 5 to 6 inches in length, it features snow-white skin and crisp, pure-white flesh. Tenderer and noticeably milder than standard round red radishes, White Icicle delivers a clean, juicy bite with a subtle, refreshing peppery kick. Extremely fast-growing—maturing in as little as 25 to 30 days—it is a dependable crop for early spring and late fall successions, as well as an excellent choice for garden row marker companion planting.

Excellent companion plant—ideal for mixing with slow-germinating seeds (like carrots or parsnips) to mark rows and break up soil

Quick to bolt and turn pithy or overly pungent if left in the ground during intense midsummer heat spells
Must be harvested promptly when roots reach 4 to 6 inches for peak crispness and flavor
