Specialty appeal; 7” Danvers-type

Vibrant purple skin with bright orange flesh and unusual yellow core. Adored by carrot aficionados for its yellow core and spicy yet sweet flavor. Roots are full size at 7” long, thrive in heavy soils and are very hardy. Improved from a USDA specimen by Dr. John Navazio, with lycopene content equal to tomatoes.

Growing notes: Days to maturity are from direct seeding. Carrots are hardy biennials that do best in fertile, sandy loam. For more compact soils, choose tapered carrots like Chantenays or Danvers types that can wedge their way into soils. Prepare raised beds by loosening soil and raking smooth. Direct seed as soon as soil can be worked in the spring. Seedlings may take up to three weeks to emerge and may require thinning to 1” apart. Ensure constant moisture during germination. Plant every three weeks for a continual harvest. Carrots hold well in the field for up to three weeks in the summer and longer in cool conditions. Some varieties may be overwintered outdoors or in a high tunnel for an early spring harvest. For storage carrots, dig roots after frost but before ground freezes.
