Notes
'Morse' carrot (Daucus carota 'Morse') is a vegetable for food 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 fast and has an erect habit. Butterflies and bees visit its blooms in summer and autumn.
Pairs well with Broccoli, Borage, and Pink Berkeley Tie Dye tomato.
