Rather than growing into a traditional globe shape, it produces elongated, cylindrical roots that reach about 15–20cm in length. This unique shape has earned it the nickname \"The Housewife's Favourite\" because it produces a much higher number of uniform, same-sized slices than round varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eEach pack contains \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"12\" data-index-in-node=\"19\"\u003e275 seeds\u003c\/b\u003e, producing roots with remarkably smooth, thin skin that is easy to peel after boiling.
