This uniform, nantes type is blood orange right to the core--the red hue means it is rich in the natural antioxidant lycopene. The texture is crunchy and flavour is sweet but mellow. Add to meals for a boost of nutrition! Best grown for fall harvest as flavour is best when allowed to mature in cooler conditions.
The very straight, tapered roots of Deep Purple carrot grow 17-20cm (7-8”) long. These carrots are named for the fact that the purple characteristic runs right to the core, and they keep their colour when lightly cooked. The tops are strong for easy harvests, and the storage potential is great. This is a fine fall harvest carrot that is good for juicing and it looks amazing in salads. The sweet, smooth-skinned roots were a staff favourite from our field trials. This is a high yielding, very uniform variety for the market grower or home gardener.
Yellow Nantes type with similar sweet flavour to our best orange varieties. Gold Nugget’s 15cm (6”) bright yellow roots pair well with our other mid-season varieties like Redsun, Narvik, and Purple Haze for a tasty, colourful harvest. Hill to avoid green shoulders.
