An amazing little turnip!

I have to say that i wasn't sure what to expect from these, i have never tried growing a variety that was created specifically for the leafy tops, but i sure wasn't disappointed! They shot up like a rocket even despite our unexpected and persistent heat wave, where it normally should be in the 70's, its been in the high 80's and 90's, but these little wonders still are powering right through it! And let's not forget those leaves, gosh they are huge! All of us here at our home agree that they are the best tasting greens of any other turnip we have grown, we have already harvested the leaves twice from them for cooked greens to serve for dinner, and they just keep right on springing back up!
