Carrot Scarlet Nantes Heirloom Organic seeds

At Home Farm Herbery we only plant Heirloom Organic seeds and we save these seeds each year.  Often we have some extra and when that happens we are pleased to offer them to other health conscious gardeners and this year we have only 25 packages to sell.

Carrot Scarlet Nantes AKA (Daucus carota) (aka Early Coreless) Dates to the 1850s; original seed developed by Vilmorin in France. Cylindrical roots are 7 inch long with blunt tips. Fine-grained bright red-orange flesh is nearly coreless. It has great flavor, sweet and brittle. Good when used as baby carrots and it is excellent for freezing and juicing. This carrot is widely adapted and stores well.  Matures in 65-75 days.

Sow seeds outdoors 3-4 weeks before last spring frost or as soon as soil can be worked. Tamp soil firmly; keep bed moist until emergence. Germination is slow and uneven, so be patient. Using spun polyester row covers may improve germination rates.
