Carrot Purple Sun F1 Seeds

Carrot Purple Sun F1 is a vivid hybrid variety grown for its deep purple colouring and rich sweet flavour.

 

It produces long smooth roots with a strong pigment that runs right through to the core giving it real presence in the kitchen. The texture is firm and crisp with a gentle sweetness that works beautifully in salads roasting and juicing.

 

Purple Sun F1 grows with confident hybrid strength and settles well into light stone free soil where its roots stay straight and evenly shaped. It performs reliably in raised beds and open ground and is a great choice for gardeners who want a colourful crop that stands out from traditional orange varieties. The foliage grows upright and healthy supporting steady root development throughout the season.

 

This variety is valued for its bold colour and balanced flavour making it a favourite for growers who enjoy something a little different in the garden. Its strong pigmentation holds during cooking and adds a vibrant touch to any dish.
