Carrot Fly Away F1 Hybrid

Carrot ‘Flyaway’ is the perfect carrot for growing in UK vegetable plots and gardens where carrot root fly is a problem. As the name suggests this British Bred variety has been developed specifically for its resistance to this troublesome pest. Not only that, but the breeding programme has retained vibrant root colour, natural sweetness, smooth skin, and blunt ended roots. Try this RHS AGM variety where root fly has been a problem in the past and you won’t be disappointed. Height: 30cm (12″). Spread: 15cm (6″).

Companion planting: Try growing carrots with spring onions, leeks and mint, whose aromatic leaves deter carrot root fly
