Description: So many purple carrots are tough and notably less sweet compared to their orange cousins, making Cosmic Purple all the more exceptional. She’s purple on the outside with a sweet orange core, and an absolutely stunning carrot to nourish you with so much more than calories! The growers at Fruition Seeds have found that 7-inch roots are the sweetest, most tender stage for Cosmic Purple carrot.
