Daucus carota is a popular, sweet-flavoured variety that produces long, smooth, cylindrical roots with a deep orange colour.
 
The Latin name Daucus refers to the genus of carrots, and carota is the specific name for the cultivated carrot. Known for its tender texture and high sugar content, this variety is a favourite for eating fresh, juicing, or adding to a variety of dishes, such as soups and stews.
 
Growing to a height of 30-40 cm, Carrot Nantes 5 thrives in deep, well-drained soil and is known for its reliable, high-yielding nature. Its cylindrical, uniform roots are perfect for both beginner and experienced gardeners, and its excellent flavour and texture make it a top choice for home-grown carrots.

For an earlier start, sow seeds indoors in seed trays or modules, then transplant seedlings outdoors once they are large enough to handle.
 
Water regularly to ensure consistent soil moisture and provide a balanced fertiliser to encourage healthy root development. Harvest when the carrots are fully grown, firm, and deep orange.
 
Carrot Nantes 5 is a classic variety that delivers outstanding flavour and texture, making it a reliable and delicious choice for any vegetable garden.
