Scarlet Nantes Carrot (Daucus carota)
Scarlet Nantes is a favourite carrot for snacking and lunch boxes because of its bright orange fine-grained roots with a crisp, juicy texture and sweet taste. In just nine weeks, the nearly coreless, 6 in. carrots grow straight and smooth with blunt ends and are nearly coreless. Scarlet Nantes Carrots thrive in clay soil and make a great canning, freezing, and cooking carrot.
