Description

An early carrot with excellent sweet flavour and deep orange colour. This is proven to have the best resistance to carrot root fly.

This produces beautiful long cylindrical carrots about 12-15cm in length. Inter sow with Spring Onion 'North Holland Blood Red' to deter carrot root fly.

Please note, illustrated packets are being introduced gradually over the coming months, availability may vary.

Care Tips

Water well to encourage germination. Once germinated, carrots should be watered only when necessary to keep the soil moist as excessive water may encourage leaf growth instead of roots. Grow under Enviromesh to protect against carrot root fly.
