Purple Haze F1 Carrot (Daucus carota L.) Seeds
Get yourself in a purple haze with these plum-coloured carrots! Purple on the outside and orange in the centre, these veggies are certainly eye-catching, but they're also sweet and suitable for salads, as a side or as a snack. They're versatile not just in the kitchen but in the garden too. Sow these easygoing seeds directly into the ground and let them soak up the sun and warmth until ready.
