Purple Top Milan is an early maturing heirloom turnip producing smooth, flattened white roots with attractive purple shoulders. The crisp, tender flesh has a mild, sweet flavour, making it ideal for steaming, roasting, mashing or adding fresh to salads when harvested young. Fast growing and reliable, this variety is an excellent choice for succession sowing and is ready to harvest in as little as 30–35 days. The young green tops are also delicious cooked like spinach.
Approximately 250–350 seeds per gram
Approximately 200 seeds per packet

Planting / Sowing
Direct sow seed 5–10 mm deep into well-prepared soil in a sunny position. Thin seedlings to 10–15 cm apart, allowing 25–30 cm between rows.

Young leaves may also be picked for cooking.

FLOWER SEEDS WITH EDEN
Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
