The difference between blue and turnip

1. Difference in appearance

The indigo plant is a biennial herb, about 30-60 cm tall, completely hairless, with a green root tuber epidermis that is oblate or spherical. The turnip can reach a height of 100 cm, with a white or yellow skin, hairy on the lower part and hairless on the upper part.

2. Difference of blades

The basal leaves of the blue plant are broadly ovate to oblong, about 13.5-20 cm long, with one lobe on each side of the base and serrated edges. The stem leaves are oblong to linear-oblong. The basal leaves of turnip are large-headed and pinnately lobed, wider and larger than the former, and about 20-34 cm long. The middle and upper stem leaves are oblong-lanceolate.
