I read an article in a gardening magazine about differently colored carrots.
It stated that orange was one of the later colors developed & became popular
due to the fact that it had a reliable taste from seed. Many of the other
colors would be sweet one crop, bitter the next. I haven't found any seeds
for sale or the carrots themselves for sale in the markets here. But I hope
to. The color & flavor sound intriguing.
