As the name suggests, the Carrot Royal Chantenay originated from the Chantenay region of France.
It is a well known, small, sweet variety of carrot with orange-red flesh and a fine crisp texture. They taste ‘as carrots used to taste’.
An all purpose variety with broad shoulders and a blunt tip. Perfect for container growing and very adaptable to a variety of soils, they are excellent for both early and succession sowing.
Chantenay carrots are extremely versatile. Simply wash in cold water and they’re ready to eat or cook. Delicious in salads they can be baked, steamed, or used in stir-frys.
They are particularly popular with children because of their sweet crunchiness and small size, one carrot is perfectly designed to fit snugly into the hand of a small child!
