description
The organic 'Bollin' carrot is a Nantes-type storage variety, prized for its long, smooth, and well-cylindrical roots that offer a regular, uniform, and high-quality harvest. In the vegetable garden, it stands out for its tender, crisp, and sweet flesh, ideal for both fresh summer harvests and good preservation after autumn. Its fine and light foliage brings an elegant texture to the garden, while its well-formed roots develop consistently in loose, deep soil. Very pleasant to grow, it rewards the gardener's patience with beautiful bright orange carrots, perfect for daily meals and seasonal reserves. If a few plants are allowed to go to seed in the second year, their umbels attract numerous beneficial insects, enriching the garden's biodiversity. This variety prefers light, stone-free soil and regular watering, which promote homogeneous growth and limit forked roots. Paired with rosemary and sage, it integrates into a living garden where companion plants contribute to the natural balance. Flavorful, reliable, and well-suited to organic gardening, this carrot fully deserves its place in a nourishing and sustainable vegetable patch.
