Daucus carota subsp. sativus

Variety originated in France

A true taste of France, Parisian Carrot seeds produce small, round, and surprisingly sweet carrots that are a culinary delight. These bright orange beauties grow to just 3.75 cm in diameter, making them perfect for urban and kitchen container gardens. Due to its petite size, this variety performs well in less-than-ideal soil, offering a quick and tender harvest in just 60 days.

What you need to know to Plant & Grow:

Parisian carrots thrive in a sunny site with well-prepared light soil.

Planting: Sow seeds 6 mm deep and 6 mm apart after the soil temperature rises above 7.5°C. Rows should be spaced 50 cm apart. Germination can take from 14-21 days, so be patient and keep the seedbeds evenly moist during this period. Avoid soil crusting, as this will greatly reduce the number of emerging seedlings.

Care: Thin the seedlings to a final spacing of 5 cm to give each plant room to grow. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers.
