Unit price perCarrot – Baby Amsterdam
(Daucus carota)
Carrot ‘Baby Amsterdam’ is a classic heirloom variety grown for its slender, sweet, and tender baby carrots. One of the earliest maturing carrot types, it produces smooth, cylindrical roots with vibrant deep‑orange flesh and almost no core, making it especially prized for fresh eating and gourmet use.
This fast‑growing variety is ideal for harvesting young as baby carrots, but roots can also be left to mature slightly for longer, finger‑sized carrots. With minimal foliage and a compact growth habit, Baby Amsterdam performs beautifully in garden beds, raised beds, and containers, and is perfect for succession sowing to ensure repeat harvests throughout the season.
