Brighten up your garden and plate with our Rainbow Carrot Mix, a delightful selection of Purple, Red, and Orange carrots. Each colour brings its unique appeal to salads, adding not just visual interest but also a range of flavours and nutrients. These carrots thrive in cooler seasons, making them a fantastic choice for both spring and fall planting.
Size: Mature plants reach about 12 to 16 in. tall, with roots varying from 6 to 8 in. in length.
Yield: Expect a bountiful harvest with each plant producing multiple roots, ideal for generous home cooking.
Taste: Sweet and crunchy with earthy undertones, the different colours also provide unique flavours – from the sweet, mild taste of orange to the more robust flavour of purple carrots.
How to use: Excellent for fresh eating, salads, roasting, or juicing for a vibrant splash of colour in meals.
Planting tips: Sow seeds directly into well-drained soil at a depth of 0.5 in. Ensure good moisture in the soil, with full sun exposure for optimal growth.
Harvest tips: Harvest when roots are mature, generally when theyve reached a suitable size but before they become too large and woody. Gently pull by the greens to avoid breaking the roots.
