On pulling some carrots yesterday, I found one was pale yellow. Is this
perhaps a type of 'albino' rogue carrot, (if such a thing exists in the

On Gardeners' World on Friday, Monty was pulling a special variety of
yellow carrots.

I believe that carrots were originally yellow and that the red ones were the
original 'mutants'.
This from a BBC radio prog a few months ago IIRC.
