Royal Crown Turnip (F1 Hybrid, 52 Days)

$ 1.95

The Royal Crown Turnip is a hybrid, and a big improvement over other purple topped varieties we've tried. Tops are shorter but have more leaves per plant making them ideal for greens. The white root is very smooth and slightly flattened with purple blotches on top. Matures quickly in either spring or fall and flavor is excellent.
