Thumbelina Carrot:
The Carrot Thumbelina, 'Daucus carota var staivus (hybrid)', is a small round gourmet carrot with a magnificent, very sweet flavor. Thumbelina was a 1992 All America Winner and is great in heavy soils and pots. Because of its small size, it is great for shallow, clay soils and containers. No excuses for condo/apartment dweller for not growing their own veggies. The single most important factor in growing carrots is to have a deep, clod and rock free, well drained soil. A 50% peat moss mix with the soil is ideal. Even moisture is essential.
