Originally developed as an early forcing type, its naturally compact roots make it an excellent choice for harvesting young as baby carrots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe slender, uniform roots are ideal for fresh eating, lunchboxes and salads, or can be steamed, roasted or glazed whole. They also freeze well, making Baby Amsterdam a useful variety for preserving a productive harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts compact root size makes this variety particularly well suited to containers, raised beds and gardens with shallower soils where longer carrot varieties may struggle. For the smoothest, straightest roots, grow in loose, friable, well-drained soil free from stones and fresh manure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximately 600 seeds per packet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Plant (Australia)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTropics: Autumn to winter\u003cbr\u003eSubtropics: Most of the year, with best results autumn to spring\u003cbr\u003eMild climates: Spring to autumn\u003cbr\u003eCold climates: Spring to early autumn, avoiding periods of heavy frost\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting \/ Sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow directly where plants are to grow, approximately 5–10 mm deep.
