A bit of history

Carrots are biennial plants belonging to the Apiaceae family. They produce edible taproots of different colors: orange, yellow, white and purple. The name derives from the Greek karoton, and the root of the word (pun intended) means "horn", a reference to the carrot’s shape.

In the 7th century, a purple variety already existed in Afghanistan and was later introduced to Europe around 1100. It was not until the 16th and 17th centuries that the orange type began to be cultivated in the Netherlands, in tribute to the emblematic color of their royal family.
