CARROT-NANTES has a fine-grained bright orange color & nearly coreless. Great flavor, sweet & crunchy. Excellent for freezing and juicing. Easy to grow & full of vitamins. Nantes carrots are named after the city of Nantes, the largest & most important city in Brittany. This cylindrical cultivar was developed sometime in the late 1800s & is quite popular in Europe because it’s sweeter & tastier than regular carrots, the slim, tubular, orange roots are 17cm long, 4 cm thick. It’s been proven tops for yield, delicious flavor & wide adaptability. Has very think skin so does not need peeling. Just scrubbing. Today there are more than a half-dozen varieties of carrots that specifically bear the Nantes name, but more generally Nantes has come to represent a quite large class of medium-sized cylindrical carrots rounded at both the top and tip. Stores well. Keep moist but NOT wet.
