Notes
'Gold Pak' carrot (Daucus carota 'Gold Pak') is a vegetable for food gardens and pollinator gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. Few crops handle cold as well, and with a little winter protection it grows on through light freezes. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Its flowers draw butterflies and bees, and it grows at a rapid pace.
Pairs well with Sage, Mountain Magic tomato, and Borage.
