80 days. This Carrot wowed us when we first saw it many years ago. Purple Sun is deep wine red inside and out, with the same color intensity as a Beet. The smooth, 12"-long roots are crispy and sweet right out of the garden. They make the most gorgeous, antioxidant-rich Carrot juice you'll ever sip.(F1.)

Purple Sun Carrots Conventional & Pelleted
90 days. Whether harvested as a baby carrot or grown to full size, Purple Sun fits the bill. Unlike other purple carrots, it has a striking strong purple color from skin to core. The conical roots are highly pointed at the tip with flat to rounded shoulders. Anthocyanin is a flavonoid with strong evidence of health benefits in humans, and you guessed it, Purple Sun is loaded with it! It's sure to be a show stopper at the table too. Hybrid Variety.
