Description
Dark purple delightful carrots with pointed roots and an enchanting taste.

An incredibly sweet and flavorful carrot variety that is excellent for raw food, juices, salads, and stews.

The taste is unique and the cool purple appearance is a big plus.

Purple carrot puree, magical accompaniments to the grill platter, or purple carrot soup with a dollop of crème fraîche are just a few of the cool food creations you can make with this carrot variety. This is a favorite among many of us at Florea and a variety we are particularly proud of.

A purple beauty with an incredible amount of charm!

Care and cultivation advice

Direct sow outdoors when the soil is workable or in late autumn for early spring harvest. Make sure to water the soil well before sowing and to keep the sowing moist throughout the germination period. The variety thrives best in rich sandy soil, but reYellowar vegetable soil or planting soil works well too. It should be sown very thinly with a distance of 6-8 cm between each seed and avoid thinning later on if possible.

The variety can also be sown and harvested gradually throughout the season. It is important to remember that carrots should change location every year to avoid damage from insects and diseases.
