About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A spectacular hybrid carrot with deep purple skin and an orange core; sliced open it shows a glowing ring of colour that lifts any plate of raw vegetables. Raw it tastes pleasantly sweet, but cooking fades the purple, so it is best used fresh. The long, smooth roots grow evenly and reliably. As an F1 hybrid it is not open pollinated, but it is very uniform and highly productive.
Sweet and crisp with a subtle spiciness; sliced raw it gives a purple and orange contrast.
