About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
‚Flyaway F1’ is a modern hybrid bred for its high tolerance against the carrot fly, whose larvae are otherwise the most common cause of bored roots. The smooth, uniformly orange roots taste mild‑sweet and are suitable fresh or cooked. If you have struggled with carrot fly damage in the past, this variety is worth trying, especially combined with a protective net. As an F1 hybrid it is uniform, but not open‑pollinated.
You will find it mild and clean in flavor, and thanks to its fly tolerance it is usually flawless at the cut.
