Description
- "What do I know of man's destiny? I could tell you more about radishes." - Samuel Beckett, presumably as big a fan of radishes as we are (spoilers: we're big fans)
- 'Cherry Belle' must have somewhere to be because *boy* does it grow quick! Undoubtedly one of the best salad radish varieties out there, with wonderful candy-red, edible taproots and bushy green leaves, 'Cherry Belle' is as easy to grow as it is delicious to eat
- Ready to harvest just a few weeks after planting, these radishes have a mildly peppery flavour that adds a definite radishy oomph without ever veering into overpowering territory
- Pickle your radishes, add them to salads or roast and serve as a sumptuous side
- Radishes are great for getting kids involved in gardening for the first time thanks to their super speedy growth - we're supposedly in an era of instant gratification, after all!
- Perfect for filling gaps in your vegetable plot, you can just as easily grow these radishes in deep pots on your patio or balcony
- Stored in the fridge, your radishes will last for a couple of weeks, whilst they'll last for half a year or so when kept in the freezer

How to grow
How to grow
Good pest and disease resistance
Radishes like 'Cherry Belle' can be affected by flea beetles, slugs and snails, and cabbage root fly, which can be mitigated against by using brassica collars (also known as cabbage collars). To reduce the risk of downy mildew, space your plants adequately and avoid splashing water on the leaves.
Water regularly
Radish plants appreciate their soil being kept consistently moist so regular watering is recommended, especially in hot weather.
Full sun to partial shade
Grows best in full sun (at least 6 hours direct sunlight) but will still grow nicely enough in partial shade.
Any moist, well-drained soil
Plant your radishes in looser soil with good drainage.
No feeding needed
Radish plants don't require any additional fertilisation.

Best plants you will ever get online
I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.
Highly recommended all round
Delivered quickly, perfectly packaged and the tree was in excellent condition. Really healthy and taken to the garden with no problems. Can't recommend highly enough. 5 stars isn't enough!
Satisfied customer
Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.
A really good quality tree
A really good quality tree, delivered on time and very well packaged. But the emailed planting advice and supporting information was what really impressed me. Thoroughly recommended.
Exceptional quality
The quality of the plants was exceptional, unlike ones I have had before from local garden centres. Thank you so much. I will definitely be using you again.
Marvellous!
Marvellous service, great plants and fast delivery. Very useful information on how to care for the plants I bought. Easy to use website that makes it far too easy to overindulge in fabulous plants 😂🌱
