Turnip - Wonnegold (50 seeds)

Turnip - Wonnegold

Turnip 'Wonnegold' is an attractive and distinctive variety producing golden-skinned roots with sweet, mild, and tender white flesh that is a world apart from the strong, pungent flavour of older turnip varieties. Quick maturing with a crisp texture and delicate flavour, it is excellent eaten raw in salads, roasted, or steamed, and the young greens are also edible and nutritious. A versatile and rewarding root vegetable that suits a wide range of kitchen uses.

Performing best in cooler weather, 'Wonnegold' produces consistent yields in spring and autumn plantings across New Zealand conditions. It prefers full sun and fertile, well-drained soil with regular moisture and is straightforward to grow, making it a practical and appealing choice for the home vegetable garden.
