Carrot – Purple Sun

Fun purple carrots for summer growing
It’s so pleasing to pull up a bunch of deep purple carrots from the ground. The flesh is purple too and the colour stays when cooked. This variety is lovely and sweet in flavour, and tends to grow quite long providing the roots are not disturbed. Our plug plants come in biodegradable pots and we would recommend planting them like this to avoid disturbing the roots. Carrots are easy to grow, just follow the growing guide advice when your plug plants arrive.

Number of plants: 10 plug plants
