Chrysanthemum Heart Radish

Chrysanthemum Heart Radish

　　【Chrysanthemum Heart Radish】 The Juxian Chrysanthemum Heart Radish gets its name from its bright red, chrysanthemum-like flesh. It is a small, fruit-like radish variety cultivated over time by

　　local farmers, humorously referred to by locals as "beautiful inside." Major varieties include "Juxian Red Skin" and "Chrysanthemum Heart."

　　 The planting method for Chrysanthemum Heart Radish is the same as that for green radish, except the plant spacing is smaller. Typically, each radish weighs about 250 grams, only about one-fourth

　　to one-fifth the size of a green radish. Freshly harvested Chrysanthemum Heart Radishes are spicy and hard, with a poor texture, and require some time of underground storage before they can be eaten raw. Compared to green radishes, Chrysanthemum Heart Radishes have distinct fruit-like characteristics: high sugar content, delicate flesh, and a sweet, pleasant taste; they are juicy, tender, and crisp, refreshing and thirst-quenching; their color is beautiful, with either red or green skin and bright red flesh, making them ideal for eating raw or in salads. In the Juxian area, during winter and spring, hosts enjoy serving radishes and scented tea to guests. Radishes with tea indeed offer a unique flavor.
