Purple Haze
This stunning new variety was a 2006 AAS winner! Deep purple on the outside and bright orange inside, it has a lovely sweet taste especially when raw. Lightly stir-fry to retain a deeper purple colour. We recommend planting it after the May long weekend so it does not bolt. The roots are long (25-30 cm or 10-12") and slender with a graceful taper. Danvers type.
Matures in 95 days. (hybrid seeds)

They are a good tasting sweet carrot. They work well for cooking however the purple tends to mix with the bright orange center producing a petty ugly colour. |
