50 Seeds Carrot Cosmic Purple

 

70 days. Yellow core, orange flesh and deep purple skin make this carrot a favorite with kids and adults alike. Danvers type roots are 15-20 cm. long, with crunchy flesh and a sweet/spicy flavour. Developed in 2005 but did you know that prior to the 1500s purple carrots were the norm? Orange carrots made an appearance only after The Dutch Royal Family (the House of Orange) had Dutch plant breeders develop them. Highly recommended

Sow carrots to avoid the very hot part of the year but also frosty periods. Sow either spring or autumn, in very mild areas all year round is possible. A sunny position is required. Carrots need a friable, well-drained soil and appreciate mulching. Sow directly where they are to grow, 10 mm deep, and 2-3 cm apart in rows 30 cm apart. Germination is slow, preventing the soil from drying out is important for success, covering seed rows with shade cloth or cardboard can help. Thin out to 5 cm apart. Avoid fresh animal manures as they can cause forking. Never try to transplant carrots as the roots will fork in all directions!

Please read the rest of this spiel as this is my personal experience with Australia Post, don’t write back to me stating how long the postage should be, this is my personal experience. If you have a problem with the item contact me before leaving feedback. Please wait at least 14 days for you items to arrive before contacting me, the post can very be slow and unreliable Please note: Anything posted to Victoria or Tasmania seem to take the longest. As I can send anything to Western Australia and it is there 3-4 days. Victoria has taken up to 21 days on occasions. Tasmania Please remember Bass Strait is between us which adds on extra time as it goes by water not air mail.
