Cosmic Purple Carrot

‘Cosmic Purple’ is a striking open-pollinated Danvers-type carrot that brings bold color and sweet flavor to the garden. Its vivid violet skin surrounds a beautiful yellow-orange interior, creating an eye-catching contrast when sliced. The roots have a pleasantly sweet flavor with a subtle hint of spice and are naturally rich in antioxidants and beta carotene.

Sow ‘Cosmic Purple’ directly in the garden about ¼ inch deep. Space plants 1 to 2 inches apart and grow in full sun. This cold-tolerant variety also performs well in containers.

Ready to harvest in about 70 days, begin checking the roots as they approach maturity and pull them once they reach your preferred size while they are still crisp and tender.

Sweet, colorful, and versatile, ‘Cosmic Purple’ is excellent for fresh eating, canning, and storage.
