Popular in Parisian markets, the round types are a great choice for clay or poorly draining soils as the roots don't grow very deep. Deep orange roots of this 18th-century French heirloom are great for fresh eating and its shape just begs for a dramatic presentation, whole or halved and roasted with an orange or maple glaze. Another fun choice for kids too!\u003cbr\u003e60-65 days.
