The Tonda Di Parigi carrot was developed in the late 19th century near Paris, and quickly gained popularity thanks to its uniquely spherical appearance. It's a round, deep-orange carrot that is harvested when it is no more than 2 inches long. And it's best planted thick so that it bunches to enhance its round shape. Sweet in flavor and tender in texture, it's a fantastic carrot for gardeners with little growing space, as its shallow roots allow it to be planted in containers or beds. Just be sure it has at least 8 inches of soil depth. Their snack size and unique shape make them extra fun to have around the kitchen, whether cutting them up for stews and soups or using them whole in a salad.
