Henderson’s Tendersweet Carrot

75 days — ‘Tendersweet’ carrot plants grow twelve to fifteen inches in height and have a distinct, dark-green foliage. When the roots reach full maturity, they are a deep orange color, average from eight to ten inches in length, and taper slightly from the shoulder to a blunt end.
