Notes

'Resistafly' carrot (Daucus carota 'Resistafly') 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. It resists the carrot rust fly and is a good choice for storage carrots. Butterflies and bees visit it.

Pairs well with Mountain Magic tomato, Broccoli, and Virginia strawberry.
