• Ruby Streaks Mustard- 1 bunch: “As if an artist had carefully brushed deep purple filigree on the delicately serrated leaves of mizuna. Anne Elder of Community Farm in Ann Arbor describes it as “a sweet flash of color for any raw dish.” Clayton Carter calls it “everything that the so-called Purple Mizuna should be.” Bold coloring on deeply toothed leaves. Germinates quickly, grows speedily but, unlike Mizuna, bolts rapidly. Great for multiple spring and fall cuttings, but cannot stand heat. Provides a striking contrast when bunched with Mizuna, Tokyo Bekana or Maruba Santoh. Also unlike Mizuna, has a sweet and spicy flavor, though not excessively hot. Even after it bolts, its flower buds and yellow flowers can add a tang to salads.” from FedcoSeed website
• Garnet Giant Asian Green- 1 bunch: “Despite its name, this mustard is a favorite for cutting at its dark purple baby stage. At its giant 3' form, plants rival the best of fall color with sun shining off vibrant maroon slightly toothed leaves on gangly lime green stems with yellow bolting flowers—the effect was glorious in our trial garden. The sweet spicy leaves, stems and flowers were all equally tender and delicious, whether grazed or braise” from FedcoSeed website
• Mini Purple Winter Radish- 1 (pulled one a little early to try for fun) “Wide plumb-bob–shaped 5" long by 2½" wide roots with gorgeous Easter egg bluish-purple skin and greenish-purple shoulders are “mini” only when compared to regular, long white daikons. Mini daikon is an oxymoron (dai means ‘big’)Topped by vibrant dark green leaves with short stems blushed purple-pink. Interior flesh is ringed deep purple with streaks through white meat merging into a purple sunburst core. All sizes, from small 3" up to the 9" bombs, have excellent crunchy tender raw texture and mildly spicy flavor. When cooked, Mini becomes firm and oh-so-sweet and savory with tangy hints of rutabaga.”
