Curious yellow carrot, with a sweet flavor that distinguishes it from the rest, improving when cooked. Long and conical shaped finished in tip, about 8-10cm. It is originally from France, hence its name. Perfect for stews and storage.
The sowing in the outside will be from February to May in rows separated 30-40cm. With a distance of at least 10cm between plants.
We recommend frequent watering during planting. Harvest from June to November, although stepped sowing can also be done to have a continuous harvest. It needs fertile, light and humid soils.
