Notes

'Nantes Coreless' carrot (Daucus carota 'Nantes Coreless') is a vegetable for food 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. It is an open-pollinated carrot that matures in about 75 days. Its erect, fast growth suits a busy vegetable bed.

Pairs well with Broccoli, Genovese basil, and Pink Berkeley Tie Dye tomato.
