Chantenay Karoo
OPEN POLLINATED VEGETABLE
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 a 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.
