Carrot Cosmic Purple with it’s bright purple skins are the talk of the table. Cosmic Purple has a sweet flavour just as good as any of the orange carrots, with a tender yet snappy crunch.
A stunning addition to the plate or the salad bowl and these colourful carrots are tender and delicious with the purple colouring remains after cooking.
The roots are smooth and straight, with a sweet flavour and a slight hint of spice. These heirloom carrots can grow extremely long producing tapering roots up 18 cm with a coreless, orange center.
With a beautiful purple skin, the deep velvety exterior gives way to a starburst of brilliant orange at the core.
The strong foliage makes them easier to pull when harvesting, with roots storing well over winter from late season sowing.
With their compelling health benefits and a thumbs-up from taste testers, Purple carrots have quickly established themselves as an interesting choice for many home growers.
