Direct sown in late summer, this radish grows to a modest 8 inches tall and delivers the steady, reliable cropping that fall gardeners crave when spring varieties have faded. Plant in succession through summer and into early fall for a continuous supply through the season.

This radish earns its place in the fall garden through sheer reliability and timing. At 55 days to maturity, it bridges the gap between summer heat and first frost, allowing you to plant multiple successions and harvest crisp roots well into autumn. The compact 3-inch diameter and moderate 8-inch height make it easy to tuck into tight spaces, and the variety's responsiveness to succession planting means you'll never face a radish shortage if you keep sowing every two weeks.
Misato Rose Fall Radish is harvested young and eaten fresh, either sliced raw into salads and vegetable platters, or lightly roasted to bring out subtle sweetness. The variety's compact size makes it particularly suited to whole roasting or halving for quick side dishes.

In late summer, direct sow seeds in rows spaced 10 inches apart. Plant in succession every 2 weeks to ensure a steady crop through fall. Thin seedlings to 2 to 4 inches apart once they have developed their first true leaves.
Harvest as soon as roots are round and reach approximately 3 inches in diameter, typically around 55 days after sowing. Feel the shoulder of the radish at soil level to gauge maturity; the root should feel firm and smooth. Do not wait too long after maturity, as overripe radishes become woody and pithy. Store harvested roots by removing the leafy tops immediately to keep them firm.
