Details:

  • Botanical Name: Daucus carota, a highly reliable selection within the Carrot genus.
  • Root Type: Amsterdam Forcing style, renowned for producing slender, smooth, and perfectly cylindrical roots.
  • Fast Maturing: The 'Sprint' strain lives up to its name, developing rapidly to provide the earliest possible homegrown spring harvests.
  • Outstanding Flavour: Ranked number one in taste tests, delivering a exceptionally sweet flavour, rich orange colour, and a crisp, tender texture.
  • Container Friendly: The neat, slender root profile makes this variety a great choice if you are gardening in pots, troughs, window boxes, or smaller plots.
  • Long Harvest Season: Highly versatile crop that can be sown successively to provide a continuous supply of fresh, crunchable baby carrots over many months.

Care Instructions:

  • Sowing Position: Sow seeds thinly directly into deep, well-drained, stone-free soil or deep containers located in an open, sunny position.
  • Successional Sowing: For a non-stop supply, sow a small number of seeds "little and often" every two to three weeks throughout the sowing season.
  • Pest Protection: Keep the young crops protected from carrot fly by using a fine insect-mesh netting or horticultural fleece immediately after sowing.
