Enjoy the diversity that carrots can bring to the garden. Plant Rainbow Blend carrot seeds to grow purple, white, red, and nice big orange carrots all in the same row. Get the most out of this collection by sowing as evenly as possible to reduce thinning and waste.
Rainbow carrots are actually a variety of ordinary carrots. They are called that way because their main feature is their color. These carrots have their root in traditional ordinary carrots that have been used for culinary purposes for the past 1500 years.
A sumptuous blend of five crowd-pleasing carrots: Atomic Red, Cosmic Purple, Lunar White, Scarlet Nantes, and Solar Yellow. These vitamin- and phytonutrient-rich heirlooms bring a rainbow of color and incredible flavor to your menu.
They do not grow well during hot weather. For a fall crop, plant 10 – 12 weeks before the first frost. Raised beds work well for carrots. Full sun requires direct light at least 6 hours/day; prefers 8 - 10 hours/day.
I find it best to plant carrots in a good vertilized sandy soil.
