Frequently Bought Together
Product Description
The Chantenay Red Core carrot is an early-maturing variety producing short, conical roots with smooth skin and a deep orange-red core. Compact and uniform, these carrots are smaller than standard varieties but pack a sweet, rich flavour with a satisfying crunch. Their smooth skin and fine texture make them a pleasure to prepare.
Sweet, crunchy, and versatile, these carrots are perfect for roasting, juicing, or adding to soups. Their smaller size means they roast quickly and evenly, and their firm texture ensures they hold up well in cooking. They also make an excellent addition to raw vegetable platters.
Chantenay Red Core carrot seeds do best in loose, sandy soil and require minimal care. Find Chantenay Red Core and other premium vegetable seeds in the Mr Fothergill’s range today. Or, for more classic veg, plant your carrot seeds with our onion seeds and potato tubers for your traditional recipes.

Sow Chantenay Red Core carrot seeds thinly in autumn or winter, 5mm (1/4in) deep in rows 30cm (1') apart. Keep the soil moist throughout germination. Chantenay Red Cored carrot shoots typically appear within 10–21 days. Sow more seeds every two weeks to maintain a continuous harvest. Once seedlings are established, thin them out to 10cm (4in) apart, taking care to water well to settle the soil around their roots.
Remove any obstacles such as stones or pebbles prior to sowing.
