Carrot Specialty Carrot Cosmic Purple Org

The Cosmic Purple Organic Carrot has purple skin with an interior color that can be solid orange, to orange yellow, to bright yellow. What a gorgeous vegetable this carrot produces! The contrast of this carrot’s stunning purple skin, against its bright orange flesh, will get your attention. Its flavor is sweet, yet spicy, and has 6 8 tapered roots. This sweet flavor makes Cosmic Purples great for sautéing or steaming, and the color remains after cooking. Carrots are a cool season vegetable. The soil temperature must be at least 40 degrees F., and the newly sprouted seeds must not be allowed to dry out. It takes up to 2 weeks to germinate, and they must be kept moist. Early thinning and weeding are a must! Plant carrots in light, sandy or silty loams. They do not require high fertility.
