Daucus carota 'Purple Dragon'
|
Description
Purple Dragon is a very uniquely coloured carrot that is sweet and tasty and contains antioxidants that appear to protect against cancers and diseases. Tastes like a regular carrot, the interior colour is orange. Also high in Vitamin A.
Grows well in an open position on light righ soil which has not been recently manured. Carrot fly is attracted by thinning, so try to avoid thinning at all. If plants are overcrowded, carefully pull alternate roots when small and use whole. Too much water can cause carrots to crack.
