Notes
'Yellow Moon' carrot (Daucus carota 'Yellow Moon') is a vegetable for food gardens, pollinator gardens, and meadows. 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. Butterflies and bees visit the yellow and green blooms.
Pairs well with Supersweet 100 tomato, Broccoli, and Fennel.
