Turnip? #754669

Asked June 07, 2021, 9:06 PM EDT

I was not planning on planting turnips, but I think some seeds got mixed up. Is this a turnip or are there any other plants that might look like this? They grew quite well and deer didn’t eat them which was quite a surprise. I thought I was planting flowers, perhaps borage, but the labels wore off and I have no idea. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!  I can’t believe something I didn’t try to grow, grew so nicely.
