Carrot Seeds, Purple Sun

Purple Sun Carrot, 15 seeds per package.

Put a spin on a garden vegetable this year with the Purple Sun Carrot. These deeply purple "coat" carrots reveal a light orange center when sliced.

Carrots are a staple in every vegetable garden, but the unique color of this carrot makes it fun to grow for the entire family. They grow to approximately 6 inches long, producing tops that are 4 to 8 inches tall, and taste notably sweet with a slight spice flavor making them just as delicious to eat fresh as cooked in your next casserole or soup. 

Sow seeds outdoors 3-4 weeks before last spring frost, or as soon as soil can be worked. Keeping soil moist throughout the germination period is important. Misting the planted area daily or covering is recommended. Carrots are slow to germinate and need steady moisture until germination. Sow successively throughout the season for fresh carrots.
