Parisian Carrot. Heirloom vegetable. Variety originated in France. Small, round, bright orange carrots to 3.75cm (1 ½in) in diameter are tender and surprisingly sweet. Due to its small size, Parisian grows well in less than ideal soil. Super choice for the kitchen container garden.
Light Requirement: Full Sun Planting Method: Direct Seed Growth Habit: Root Crop Days to Emergence: 14 - 21 Days to Harvest 60 Height: 30 - 40cm (12 - 16in)
Carrots will grow well in any open, well cultivated, deep garden soil. As the seed is quite small, mix it with some sand when sowing. Once soil temperature rises above 7.5 C (45 F), sow seed about 7-15mm (1/4-1/2in) deep in rows spaced 45-60cm (18-24in) apart. Sow seed at 5 day intervals over several weeks. Keep the seedbed evenly moist during the 2 week germination period but avoid crusting over the soil as this will greatly reduce the number of seedlings that emerge. Thin the seedlings during the early stages of growth until they are 5cm (2in) apart. Keep the plants evenly watered, weed free and avoid high nitrogen fertilizers. Harvest any time after the carrot roots develop good colour.
