Aussehen

The carrot plant has delicate, feathery green leaves that grow from a small crown. Its most distinctive feature is the long, tapering taproot, which is typically bright orange, though varieties can also be purple, red, or white. Small white flowers form flat, umbrella-like clusters when the plant bolts.
