Kyoto Red Carrot

Though my Kyoto carrots bolted this year, it was our crazy weather. Last year, they were wonderful. In fact, I'm ordering 2 more packs for next year.

Such a beautiful carrot. The flavor is sweet and does exceptionally well in the Fall and Spring here in the desert.

Last year, this was my favorite! This year, they are all bolted. Planted same time each year. BUT, I'm not giving up. Am ordering another pack and doing a fall planting to see if that helps here in mid-Michigan. They are delicious! I can only recommend this to a friend if they are patient and likes to experiment with failures.

I love these carrots! As the directions say, you should plant in fall so they grow in the cold winter. Mine are not yet completely grown but the ones I’ve pulled are long and beautiful and deliciously sweet. I think I’ll do what other reviewers did and plant in July next year. I planted in October in a bed that is in the shade all winter. Can’t wait for them to be full size!

Not sure why these didn't work well for others, but they were my favorite. The carrots grew well, when I didn't expect them to. Took a while for them to mature, but they did get mature in this Michigan climate. They ended up far sweeter than my orange variety. But wow! $4 a pack? No can do!!! Will have to search for a cheaper variety.
