Growing Info
Harvesting: For best flavor and texture, harvest carrots any time before, and until they reach their optimal size. Peak harvest period lasts about 3 weeks, longer in the fall. Late summer-sown carrots are sweetened after having been kissed by light frost; however, harvest before soil freezes, which may destroy the crop. In USDA zone 5 or warmer, carrots can be left in the ground for storage provided they are heavily mulched; harvest as needed on days the ground is not frozen.

I grew these in 2025, and we were picking carrots all throughout late spring into fall. We just plucked them up whenever we wanted carrots for dinner! My daughters loved pulling these from the ground. The beautiful colors give you a surprise every time and it’s like holding a lovely bouquet. Will definitely grow again.
