These carrots perform better then any other I have planted in our flat black tight soil. It was in a raised bed, but I didn't add sand, just manure and peat. Great yield and good flavor and size.

I planted these my first year gardening. I planted them a little close to one another, but they were simply amazing. Great flavor. They thrived.

I grew these in my raised beds in 2013. I simple sowed the seeds when the ground was ready and watered when needed. I got a very nice yield. When I harvested them they were very easy to pull and had a mild sweet taste. Most of these I froze for winter use and am very pleased with how they cook up. I had a few crooked carrots but that I think was due to me not working the soil loose enough before planting the seeds. I will plant these again as well as try other varieties.
