The 'Purple Top White Globe' turnip variety is an heirloom garden classic, boasting deliciously sweet and tender white roots. Adorned with a handsome blush of pink to purple at the crown, these turnips grow to a sizeable 4-6 inches across. The easy-growing turnip plants produce super-nutritious young leaves, the classic southern greens of legend, which are perfect for soups, vegetable gratins, or baked alongside other root vegetables.
Each packet contains a generous 5,000 turnip seeds, ready for planting outdoors in early spring after the average last frost date. In just 55 days, you'll be harvesting these bountiful roots. Turnips thrive in full sunlight and loose, stone-free soil, allowing them to reach their full, optimal shape and size. For a fall turnip crop, you can even sow the seeds again in late summer.

product_care_instructions | Keep plants well-watered during the growing season, especially during dry spells. Plants need about 1-2 inches of rain per week during the growing season. Use a rain gauge to check to see if you need to add water. It's best to water with a drip or trickle system that delivers water at low pressure at the soil level. If you water with overhead sprinklers, water early in the day so the foliage has time to dry off before evening, to minimize disease problems. Keep the soil moist but not saturated. | ||||
