Description

The carrot ‘Red Sun F1’ is a beautiful and high-yielding variety that brightens up the garden with its deep red color and intense sweetness.

It has a uniform, conical shape and firm roots that stay crisp and juicy long after harvest.

The color runs all the way through the carrot, from skin to core, making it wonderfully decorative in dishes.

The flavor is rich, sweet, and aromatic with a subtle nuttiness that becomes even more pronounced when cooked.

Recipe tip for Red Sun soup:Peel and slice the carrots, then sauté them in a saucepan with chopped yellow onion and a little olive oil until softened.

Add enough vegetable broth to just cover and let simmer for about 15 minutes.

Blend the soup until smooth and stir in a splash of cream or coconut milk.

Season with salt, pepper, and a bit of grated ginger for warmth.

Serve with a spoonful of yogurt and a few drops of olive oil.

Care and cultivation advice

Sow directly outdoors when the soil is ready, or in late fall for an early spring harvest. Make sure to water the soil thoroughly beforehand and keep the seeds moist throughout the germination period. This variety grows best in humus-rich sandy soil, but regular vegetable soil or potting soil also works well. Sow very sparsely, preferably with 6-8 cm between each seed, and avoid thinning later.

This variety can also be sown and harvested throughout the season. It is important to remember that carrots should be grown in different locations each year to avoid harmful insects and diseases.
