Purple Top White Globe Turnip is a heirloom, tender, warm weather annual vegetable that is native to the United States, and was first introduced in 1881. A vegetable that is grown for its tap root and leaves. It is easy to grow and does not require much effort, like the beet or the potato. Some regions even eat turnip stems. Turnips are considered to be native to Europe and form the staple for both human and livestock. Turnips are a rich source of Vitamin C and hence are essentially immunity-boosting veggies. Also, the phytonutrients which are responsible for its stingy flavor are great as detoxifiers. In fact, the high-dietary fiber that the turnips provide the human body, make the vegetable, a great remedy for diverticulitis - a condition of the colon. Other benefits of including turnips in your diet include maintaining a healthy vision, weight, and digestion. You can cook turnip along with other vegetables or separately for a flavorful dish! Add them to salads, soups, or to your meat dishes for a strong and earthy taste. SEED TYPE : Non-Hybrid, Open Pollinated And Non-GMO ROOT SHAPE : Round ROOT COLOR : Half Purple From Top And Bottom Half White FLESH : White, Sweet And Crispy HARVEST : After 40-50 Days SPECIFICATION : Roots Are Eaten Raw, Pickled And Cooked.
Turnip flowers are edible and can be used as a garnish or added to salads, offering a sweet, slightly mustardy flavor.
