Carrot - Specialty Carrot - Dragon - Org

The Dragon Organic Carrot will add a whole new color to your table or market stand. (Yellow and purple carrots were the first recorded in Asia Minor in the 10th century. ) Its interior can range from dark orange to orange with a yellow core, which contrasts strikingly with its deep purple exterior. The colors provide great contrast in salads. Dragon Carrot is excellent steamed or raw, but tastiest when cooked. The sweet, spicy flavor of this open-pollinated carrot puts it above other purple types, and its flavor comes through when eaten raw or cooked. We are very pleased to be able to bring you this milestone in specialty carrots. Plant organic carrot seeds in the early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. Plant successive crops 2 weeks apart, and plant a crop in fall to mulch and overwinter for a delicious late winter or early spring treat. Carrots prefer light porous soil, especially the longer varieties. . ... more info
