==Historio==
Kredeble, la sovaĝaj prakarotoj devenis el [[Afganio]], kie restas la centro de diverseco de varioj de ''D. carota''. TheLa familiarfamiliara wildflowersovaĝa floro, [[Wildsovaĝa carrotkaroto]],estas bettersemo knownde as "Queen Anne's Lace" is a descendent of a garden carrotĝardenkaroto; garden carrotsĝardenkarotoj that run to seed soon revert to their wild prototype, with a forking carroty-smelling, edible root that quickly becomes too woody and bitter to eat. [[Pastinako]]j are close relatives of carrots.
 
Carrots or "skirrets" originally came in [[purple]], [[white]] and [[yellow]] colours. The now synonymous orange carrot was developed in [[Holland]] as a tribute to [[William I of Orange]] during the Dutch fight for [[independence]] from [[Spain]] in the [[16th century]]. The orange carrot, not only had a better taste but also had beta carotene making it healthier, and so all other carrots stopped being planted.
