Mini Carrot Plants
- Sweet, crunchy, conical carrots that you don't even need to peel! Roast them whole, dip in hummus or use to fill the kids' lunchboxes.
- Grow in raised beds or pots with sandy or loamy soil.
- You will receive a strip of 32 healthy young plants ready to grow on.
- Strong foliage makes the carrots easy to pull.
- Plant out after the first frosts and harvest from June onwards.
- Premium plants grown by vegetable experts on a family run farm in Lancashire and sent to you at the best possible time for planting.
- Growing your own gives you healthy, fresh produce with a lower carbon plant-print than anything you can buy from a shop.
- Easy to grow and care for - simply remove your plants from their strip and pot them on individually until the last chance of frost has passed and they're ready to plant outside. You should see your first carrots within 12-15 weeks.

Meet Cameron
An experienced hand from seed to harvest
When it comes to veg plants, if Cameron doesn’t know about it? It ain’t worth knowing. They’re one of his horticultural passions and the quality of the produce he – well, produces – at the nursery is testament to that fact. Cameron pairs time-honoured horticultural traditions alongside the very best modern techniques in our fabulous, purpose-built nursery in Evesham. With a background that saw him place at the Grand Finals at the Young Horticultural Awards back in 2022, we’re proud to have someone that really knows his onions.
