(Daucus carota). This variety has a gorgeous reddish-purple exterior and an unusually refined appearance. Bred by John Navazio, these carrots are known not only for their visual appeal but also for their unique flavor profile—sweet with a hint of spice, making them an excellent choice for adding both color and taste to your garden and table. Their vibrant purple skin is rich in anthocyanins, antioxidants that offer additional health benefits beyond the typical nutrients found in carrots.
