Killer Carrot!

I was digging around in the refrigerator vegetable crisper yesterday, looking for something ( I have forgotten what it was ) when I ran into this:

Carrot!

The Carrot was at the bottom of the bin, growing. Really. Growing in the veggie crisper.

I remembered that there were some huge carrots left in there last Summer… tough and stringy and too big to eat. And I found this one growing in there… in the dark… in the cold… looking just like this. The leaves have greened up a bit over the last day, but other than that, the carrot looked just like this.

Yikes.

Since it was showing such determination and stamina, we decided to put it into a vase of water to see what it might do, instead of chopping it up for the mulch pile.

Feeding this Killer Carrot may seem foolhardy, but if it will grow in the bottom of the fridge, what would it do in the mulch pile?

I guess carrots can grow in the cold and the dark… unless that little light in the fridge really doesn’t go off when you close the door.
