Some other heirloom varieties: Dragon purple carrots, Atomic red carrots.
Even though the oldest known carrots where mostly yellow and purple, white carrots have still been around for longer than orange ones has. These lunar white carrots are sweet, tender and almost completely cordless. They have a mild carrot taste and look beautiful in salads, but can replace orange carrots in any dish. As these carrots don’t have any pigment, their nutritional value is slightly lowered, but they do contain health promoting phytochemicals.
