An old french variety sometimes known as Guerande & originally grown in the neighbourhood of Nantes. A snub nosed variety, which will grow well in containers or shallow soil. The roots can be 10-13cm (4-5) wide at the shoulder, & will not get much longer. The name gives a perfect description on the shape of this carrot. Sweet & tender, Oxheart is a quick grower with less foliage than youd expect from the size of the root, & its an excellent keeper.
