Type: Carrot
Carrots are one of those vegetables that I could probably do an entire garden full of and still feel like I did not have enough. I love them, and there are such wonderful colors available that it was really hard to narrow this down to just one that I wanted to grow- I may pick up a very basic variety later, but for now, this beauty is my number one choice.
These, unfortunately, are only purple-skinned, which is pretty standard for purple carrots. I've yet to see a purple variety of carrot that is purple all the way through, though white, red, and yellow carrot varieties can indeed be colored the entire way through, as I found out several years ago when I grew a "rainbow mix" of carrots back in Rochester.
Speaking of the "rainbow mix," that is one thing I wish Baker Creek offered. It would be so much less stressful to choose if I could just get a variety mix and roll the dice as to what I end up with!
