2007 New Introduction: Carrot F1 'Ya Ya'

I wanted to start looking at some New Introductions for 2007, and the new Carrot F1 'Ya Ya' - Daucus carota - caught my eye.

If you live in a warmer climate, you can be growing carrots now, but many will have to wait till early spring.

Here is some information about the new F1 Carrot 'Ya Ya'

Hardiness: Cool-season vegetable good in USDA Zones 3 and warmer

Light: Full Sun

Soil: Deep, light, well drained soil without stones or other obstructions

Water: Regular watering. Don't overwater as continually wet soil can cause root rot

Habit: 7-inch (17.8 cm) long 1.25-inch (3.2 cm) wide cylindrical, blunt-tipped shape

Comments: A very sweet Nantes bunching carrot, with a bright orange color. Sets a new standard for quality and flavor. Harvest 60 days from sowing seed
