D’Eysines Carrot

This is a great old French variety, grown in the past in the region around Bordeaux. It has a decent orange colour throughout, including the core, with a good flavour and medium-sweet taste. Early in the season they are long and thin, but later they get incredibly fat, with a unique conical shape. 

We included it in our carrot trials for the first time in 2003, and in the end because it makes such very fat roots, it gave one of the highest yields of the lot!

Now very rare other than our own production, so do consider saving your own seed.
