A very old heritage variety, originating in Egypt and dating back to the 1800s. In a crop description from 1885, the French seed producer Vilmorin states `Exceedingly early variety, the best of all early kitchen garden kinds\u2019. This is echoed in modern times by gardener Bob Flowerdew who proclaims that it has `the best flavour\u2019. Early maturing, smooth skin on wide roots, deep crimson\/purple flesh, both sweet and tender. Very popular among the staff in taste test. Grows above the ground, so easy to pull when harvesting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
