Turnip Seeds Shalgam Vegetable Top Desi Seeds Pack of approx. 100 Seeds

Grow Desi Shalgam at Home — Fresh Turnips from Your Own Garden

Shalgam (Turnip) is a winter staple in Indian kitchens — earthy, mildly sweet, and wonderfully versatile. This desi variety is grown for both its nutritious roots and its tender leafy tops (shalgam ke patte), which are equally prized in North Indian cooking. From slow-cooked sabzi to hearty dal and fresh salads, homegrown shalgam brings authentic flavour to your table.

Each pack contains approximately 100 seeds — ideal for a generous kitchen garden bed, raised planter, or multiple pots.
