Turnip Hakurei is a premium Japanese heirloom celebrated for its smooth, flat-round white roots and exceptional sweet, fruity flavor with a consistently crisp, tender texture. These early-maturing roots reach peak quality when harvested young at 1–2 inches in diameter, typically 40 days after planting, making them ideal for succession planting and continuous harvests throughout the season. The tender greens are equally valuable—harvest them raw for salads or lightly cook for a mild, nutritious side dish. Hakurei turnips excel in fresh preparations, light pickling, and roasted applications where their delicate sweetness shines. With a germination rate of 80% or better, these Non-GMO hybrid seeds establish reliably across diverse growing conditions and soil types. Our 200-seed packets arrive in sustainable, reusable, and fully recyclable packaging that eliminates unnecessary plastic waste. Perfect for market gardeners, CSA operations, and home growers prioritizing both culinary excellence and environmental stewardship, Hakurei delivers consistent quality and flavor season after season.
