Growing Tips for New Zealand

Direct sow seeds 5 mm deep into loose, free-draining, stone-free soil in a sunny spot. Sow from spring through to early autumn (September–March) for a long harvest season. Thin seedlings to 5–10 cm apart once established. Keep soil consistently moist, especially during germination. Avoid freshly manured soil as it can cause forked roots. Harvest when shoulders are visible at the soil surface — usually 70–80 days from sowing.

What's in the Packet

Each packet contains 30+ seeds of Carrot Rainbow Mix (Daucus carota), a blend of colourful varieties, with sowing and growing instructions included.
