Carrot Seeds - Lunar White

(Daucus carota sativa) 75 days to maturity.

Lunar White Carrot is a beautiful moon-white colour that practically glows, a real stand-out variety in a salad or on the market stand.

It is a fabulous producer, with a tapered root that is almost coreless, a nice crunch and sweet yet mild flavour. Lunar White Carrot is especially yummy when picked as a small, baby carrot. Cooking it really enhances its sweetness.

White carrots may seem unusual, but in fact cultivated carrots originated as wild carrot, which has a long, white root. White carrots were grown in the Middle Ages, and remained popular through the 19th century, but faded into obscurity in the 20th century. Help bring back this productive heirloom variety by planting it in your garden this year!
