I've just pulled a bunch of carrots up from the garden and found these two love birds. The variety, by the way, is Purple Haze.

Arrh Schucks. Aren't they sweet

Bees do it, Birds do it,
Even carrots underground do it ....... :} ....

Oh Sue you really had the heart to seperate them? It's like the tragedy in two kings children ;o)

I did put them back together though!

I wonder if they would make a good fabric dye.

I think it would be a weak grey.

They are going to be 'lost' without each other. :)

That's an interesting "twist" to a carrot saga.
I've never had a purple carrot. Do they taste more like a beet?

No - just like a carrot! Interestingly I have some bright yellow beetroot as well.

How interesting! It must have taken you a while to get those two love carrots apart.

lol Sue ;)

Trev and I have them frequently, we have them here in Australia. You should see the colour of the water when they are cooked. Carolyn, would love it! It's really PURPLE! Love Chris

Wow they have grown weird. I have never seen any of the purple carrots before.
