Hands down my favorite carrots. They consistently produce smooth, straight, sweet carrots, and they keep wonderfully. I am still eating on some that I've kept from last year! (I have them in a bin of sawdust in my garage) I definitely recommend these to anyone that wants a good carrot for fresh eating, cooking, and storage.
