Rainbow Blend Carrot Seeds by West Coast Seeds (Daucus carota subsp. sativus)

Rainbow Blend Carrot Seeds by West Coast Seeds (Daucus carota subsp. sativus) produce a vibrant mix of orange, yellow, white, and purple carrots with crisp texture and sweet flavour. This blend offers visual diversity in the garden and on the plate while maintaining reliable performance. This listing is for seed packets only and does not include live plants.

Daucus carota subsp. sativus is a cool-season root vegetable grown for its edible taproot. Rainbow blends typically combine multiple carrot cultivars selected for uniform growth habit and complementary maturity times. These carrots perform best in garden beds, raised beds, or deep containers with loose, stone-free soil that allows for straight root development.

Each colour offers slightly different flavour nuances, ranging from classic sweetness in orange varieties to milder, earthy tones in purple and white types. The mix creates strong visual appeal for fresh eating, roasting, and market-style bunching.

Sun Requirements ▾

Full sun is ideal for optimal root development and sweetness. Provide at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Carrots tolerate light shade, but insufficient sunlight may reduce size and slow growth.

Watering Instructions ▾

Maintain evenly moist soil throughout the growing season to encourage smooth, tender roots. Irregular watering can cause cracking or woody texture. Avoid saturated soil conditions, as excess moisture may lead to rot.

Care Tips ▾

Rainbow Blend Carrots grow best in loose, well-draining soil free from rocks and heavy clay to prevent forked or misshapen roots. They prefer cooler temperatures and perform optimally in spring and fall growing seasons. Soil amended with compost supports steady growth, and proper spacing improves airflow and root formation. Direct sow Rainbow Blend Carrot seeds outdoors in early spring once soil can be worked, or again in late summer for a fall harvest. Seeds germinate best in soil temperatures between 7–24°C. Thin seedlings carefully to allow adequate spacing for uniform root development. Most varieties within the blend mature in approximately 60–75 days. Harvest when roots reach desired size for best flavour and texture.
