Chantenay Karoo

Outstanding Qualities

• Spring to mid-summer sowing
• Not prone to cracking
• Good field holding ability

Chantenay Karoo is an excellent, widely adapted, open pollinated carrot variety, suitable for home gardening purposes and for the production of bunched carrots. Chantenay Karoo is a medium maturing variety with good field holding potential as it is not prone to cracking and bolting – the latter is an advantage because the roots could be harvested over an extended period. Chantenay Karoo produces wedge-shaped roots with a semi blunt tip and a strong stem attachment, making it ideal for the bunched carrot market.
