We have always kept our eyes peeled for a symbol of what is Excellent, a symbol that would serve all Rhinodom. Root vegetables have always been appealing; part is in the earth, and part is on top, like Us. Rooted but gregarious.
And then, only a few Many Years Ago, there was the Radish! What a satisfying shape, what a welcoming color, a snappy flavor, a touching humility among the plant world! In no aspect is it wanting, at least any aspect We value.
The Radish is symbolic of all that is Outstanding; We aspire to its wealth of scintillating facetnous and tonalities.
We are grateful for its example.

Bounds? Bounds!? What virtues lurk in Restriction? “No” is such an easy answer. The Radish never says, nor ever even implies “No”.

Always a delight to see the radish assuming its rightful place. Colorful, cheerful, always ready to grow in home or garden. A coup. A veritable coup. And, for Asian relatives, it comes in white for a change of pace or a quiet, contemplative moment.
