Cherry Belle Radishes:

According to the package for this packet of Ferry-Morris seeds in the southeastern Pennsylvania area it is recommended to plant this variety in March through May and again in August. Seeds take 4-7 days to germinate. Plants take 22 days to harvest. Seeds are to be planted ½ in. deep and in rows 12 in. apart with plants 1 in from each other.

From the picture on the package these radishes are a bright cherry red.

Sparkler Radishes:

Identical to the Cherry Belle in all aspects of growth except for taking 25 days to harvest. These have white bottoms and red tops.

Short-top Icicle Radishes:

These white carrot shaped radishes are an oriental variety with growth aspects similar to those of the cherry belle save for taking 28 days to grow.
