(74 days) Open-pollinated. This Imperator type is really red with a hint of purple on the outside of the 4–6" cylindrical roots. Slice it open to rings of color, the red rind giving way to a deep orange interior with a lighter core. Even the stems and tops show red. Roots taste mild and sweet when raw. Keeps its color when cooked and develops a yummy carroty sweetness with no harshness. Taste is pure bonus. Color packs the wallop that could make your sales explode. Susceptible to P and to cavity spot. ③ BACK!
