Product Information

The Long Imperator Carrot variety is defined by large, straight, smooth roots that grow to be about 8" long when fully mature.

An All-America Selections Winner! The flesh of this carrot is firm and its flavor is excellent. It's perfect in fresh salads and is one of natures best sources of Vitamin A! Yum!

Sow Easy seeds are pelleted with an all-natural coating made from a mix of clay, perlite, and FDA-approved food coloring. This coating adds some bulk to small seeds and stands out in the soil, making direct sowing and accurate spacing easier than ever. However, the coating does add a few days to the germination time when compared to uncoated seed.
