Foodie Treat: 'Circus Circus' Tricolor Carrots Renee's Seeds


A tender foodie treat: This new variety for 2011 from Renee's Seeds:
Tricolor Carrots 'Circus Circus' is a winner.
We grow it in T's sun-drenched community garden.

We're harvesting small, tender carrots and eating them straight from the plot. I used a macro setting on the camera so they appear full-size. T hasn't had any luck with carrots in the past, but this variety is already producing an extremely abundant crop and it's only July.

  2. Makes me want to try my hand at carrots next year. I haven't been as good with edibles as I have been with ornamentals but your tricolors look wonderful and inspiring.

  3. Hey Deb,
    I'd say yes, give them a try!

    Bom,
    Carrots can be tricky. They need rich, loose loamy soil. Cheers!

  4. I'll keep that in mind for when I get up the courage. Hah! Never thought I'd be afraid of carrots in any manner.
