Cosmic Purple Carrot (Daucus carota)
"Cosmic Purple" carrots have a soft, satisfying flavour in soups, salads, or when eaten fresh, and are high in antioxidants and vitamin A. The open-pollinated variety "Cosmic Purple" carrots have a dark wine-colored exterior, but the interior is as orange as a normal carrot. Carrots grow best in the spring and fall when the weather is cool, and if the weather is too hot, they develop root defects and an unpleasant taste.
