Golden Ball have deliciously sweet tasting golden yellow flesh with a beautiful golden skin. They are a spring sowing variety maturing in about 60 days with good storage qualities and a deliciously mild flavour.
Turnips are fast growing root vegetables which add a different flavour grated raw in salads, added to casseroles or served as a separate vegetable completely. When pulled young, they are a far cry from the woody, sad examples that can often be seen in the supermarkets today.
