Nirvana carrot is a mid-late season hybrid of the nantaise type, distinguished by high yield and resistance to cracking and bolting. The root crops have a bright orange color, cylindrical shape with a slight taper and a slightly pointed base, measuring 16 to 20 cm in length and weighing between 110 and 180 grams. Leaves are dark green, very long, and medium-cut, forming a semi-spreading rosette.
