Lunar White
60 days — White carrots have been around since the early 1600s having originated in Northern Europe. Wild carrots are white in color.
Although they lack the pigments that benefit health like the red, purple, yellow and orange varieties possess, they still are tasty, nutritious, contain dietary fiber, and add one more dimension of color to your veggie platter. Each packet contains one gram, which is approximately 650 seeds.
Planting Instructions:
Loosen rich, well-drained soil to a depth of one foot, in a location that receives 6 to 8 hours of full sunlight per day.
Plant outdoors in spring as soon as the ground can be worked. Plant seeds ¼ inch deep, ½ inches apart in rows that are spaced 12 to 18 inches apart.
Keep moist until germination. Thin to 1 to 2 inches apart after the seedlings are 1½ inches tall.
Water as required and keep soil cultivated to control weeds.

I grew these in containers. They were the least flavorful of the three varieties of carrots I grew but not bad by any means. Absolutely beautiful bright white color.
★★★★★ Large, neon white

They weren't kidding when they called these lunar white, I was a little leery about flavor with these but they turned out crisp, sweet and full of flavor. The color is a welcome addition to salads. These also grew HUGE, some of the largest carrots i've ever grown.
