This classic carrot can't be beat! 'Tendersweet' is an impressively long, slender, and nearly coreless Tendersweet imperator-type carrot, with a super sweet flavor that's excellent raw or cooked. Its deep orange-red color will remain after being steamed, baked, or frozen. Gather them together for a beautifully tapered orange bunch with dazzling green tops. This packet sows up to 50 feet.

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 2 to 4 weeks before your average last frost date, and when soil temperature is at least 45°F, ideally 60°-85°F. Successive Sowings: Every 3 weeks until 10 to 12 weeks before your average first fall frost date. In very warm climates, carrots are grown primarily in fall, winter, and spring.

When to start inside: Not recommended; root disturbance stunts growth.
