Description: Approximate root length: 30cms (12 inches). An excellent maincrop variety with long, large, high quality conical roots with a fine, even internal colour. Highly recommended for eating fresh or for winter storage. Sowing Instructions: Carrots prefer a deep rich, well drained soil which does not contain fresh manure or compost. Sow from spring to mid summer in drills 1cm (½in) deep, spaced 30cm (12in) apart.

Growing Instructions: As soon as the seedlings are large enough to handle, start thinning them out so that they are finally 10cm (4in) apart. Aftercare Instructions: The last thinnings will provide tender roots just large enough to be used. Harvest autumn and winter.
