Notes
'Adelaide' carrot (Daucus carota 'Adelaide') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It ranks among the more cold-hardy crops, and with some winter protection it keeps growing through light freezes. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It grows at a rapid rate and reaches maturity in 32 days. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Sage, Green Zebra tomato, and Salad burnet.
