Description

Nantes Coreless Carrot (Daucus carota) is an exceptional French heirloom variety renowned for its cylindrical shape, smooth reddish-orange skin, and virtually coreless interior. Delivering an remarkably sweet, crisp flavor with fine texture, it is widely considered one of the finest carrots for fresh eating, juicing, cooking, and freezing. Producing uniform 6–7 inch roots with blunt tips, it performs reliably in loose, well-worked garden soils.
