About Little Finger, Carrot Seed
Little Finger carrot seeds grow into a petite, gourmet variety that originated in France and has been cherished since the mid-20th century for its tender, sweet flavor and snackable size. Its bright orange flesh is crisp, juicy, and sugary, often eaten fresh right from the garden, but also excellent for steaming, roasting, or pickling. Known as a child-friendly carrot because of its size and sweetness, Little Finger is ideal for fresh snacking, lunchboxes, and gourmet dishes, while also storing well for extended use.

Pests & Diseases
Alternaria and Cercospora leaf blights, aster yellows, cavity spot, and storage rots are key carrot problems. Remove feathery leaves that develop expanding dark lesions. Control weeds and leafhoppers to limit aster yellows, rotate fields, and avoid injuring roots at harvest; damaged carrots decay quickly in storage.
Carrot rust flies, root-knot nematodes, wireworms, and rodents may damage roots. Use insect netting early, rotate planting areas, remove crop residue, and harvest promptly where burrowing damage appears.
