White Satin Carrot

$5.99

White Satin Carrots have luminous white roots with strong, 40-45cm (16-18″) green tops. The 25cm (10″) long cylindrical roots have a unique crisp texture, and juicy flavour. White Satin carrot seeds produce handsome Danvers shaped roots that store well and juice well. Try White Satin roasted as part of a winter meal with other coloured carrots or on their own. It is thought that the ancestral wild carrot had roots that were white, but this is a more recent hybrid, bred for uniformity and great flavour. At first sight, your neighbours will think you are harvesting parsnips, but on closer inspection they are most definitely white carrots.

Our staff are experts at seed starting and at vegetable gardening and we love to share our passion and knowledge with you!

Growing plants from seed is a great way to start gardening earlier in the season. With the right light, soil and some simple equipment, it’s easy to grow from seed to harvest. All you need is a sunny window or some grow lights, a basic seed-starting mix, some trays or small pots, and a seedling heat mat if you want to accelerated growth.

SEED STARTING IS FUN, EASY AND IS SO REWARDING!

Starting your own seeds indoors expands the selection of crops that you can grow. This is especially relevant because we live in a cold climate with a relatively short growing season. We are located in climate zone 3, so slow maturing crops like peppers, onions, leeks, celery, and tomatoes have to be started before spring in order for them to reach maturity during the summer months.

At Shelmerdine, we’re excited to be your experts for all things seeds!
