Easter Egg is a colorful blend of round radishes bred to produce roots in an assortment of hues from a single sowing, including red, pink, purple, and white. Marketed as a mix rather than a single strain, it delivers the visual variety of several radishes with the convenience of one seed packet. The globes are similar in size and maturity to Cherry Belle, staying crisp and mild when harvested young in cool weather. Easter Egg is especially popular for market bunches and children's gardens because of its cheerful multicolored display. Each root has crisp white interior flesh regardless of skin color, and the mix sows and grows exactly like a standard spring radish.
