This is a stunning and very interesting dark red carrot! The red colour comes from lycopene, the same substance found in tomatoes, well known as an anti-oxidant and reputed to have cancer-preventing properties. Lovely sweet, strong flavour, great eaten raw, but perhaps best served lightly cooked as the colour intensifies and the lycopene becomes more readily assimilated. Wonderful for adding colour to all your cooking and now firmly established as one of our favourites. -

Heirloom Carrots are some of the premier baby carrots available. Bright orange, these heirloom carrots grow about 9 cm long. Each sweet carrot is crisp with a tender core. Their small size lets them grow well in containers, as well as out in the garden. Little fingers are a Nantes type of carrot. Bred in France, they develop their characteristic orange colour earlier than other varieties, these carrots can be harvested early at 8-9cm. Don't let them stay in the ground beyond around 68 days from sprouting or they begin to lose their unique gourmet flavour and texture. -

The Autumn King carrot is one of the more popular varieties to grow. Its split-resistant skin turns to a deep dark orange/red color as it matures. One of the largest carrots! Grows 25-30 cm long. Easy to grow in sandy soil. A favorite of many home growers. Carrots are sun-loving plants that also like the cold. Just keep them consistently watered and they'll be happy. If heavy frost is forecast, either harvest for winter storage or processing, or mulch with a thick layer of straw. -
