Planting Tips:
Purple carrots grow best in loose, well-drained soil free of rocks and clumps. Sow seeds directly in the garden in early spring or late summer for a fall harvest. Keep soil evenly moist during germination, as carrot seeds can take longer to sprout. Thin seedlings early so roots can develop properly and harvest when carrots reach full size for the best flavor and color.
