Product Information
A carrot that is best cooked! This imperator type contains a large amount of lycopene (usually found in tomatoes) in place of betacarotene, this turns the colour of the carrot from a light pinky-red to an intense orange-red when cooked with a great flavour and texture. We can vouch for the fact that it is still a great carrot flavour.
Sowing Instructions
Sow outdoors, March to July. Thinly where they are to crop, 1.5cm (0.5") deep, directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 30cm (12") between rows. Early sowings may benefit from cloche protection. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Thin by harvesting young carrots evenly from the row, allowing remainder to grow on. Water well until plants are established. regular sowings made every 3 weeks will ensure a continuous supply of young roots. Roots can be lifted in autumn. Remove soil and store in dry sand.
