An early variety that can be sown from February (under protection) through until July. A superb flavour and a firm favourite. Suitable for growing in bags or where space is limited.

Sow April-July direct in to the soil in drills 2cm deep and rows 30cm apart.

Try to sow as thinly as you can to avoid having to pull up seedlings which can attract carrot fly. You want to try to have carrots about 5cm apart. You can pull alternate carrots early and have as baby carrots then leaving the rest to grow on to mature size at the correct spacing

Harvest June-November

Try growing carrots with leeks or spring onions to deter carrot fly.
