- Product number: 069900
- Origin: Europe

An old Italian salad delicacy! After only a few weeks, you can start harvesting the tender, slightly bitter leaves. Pure or mixed with other raw vegetables.
The chicory family includes endive, frizzy endive, and various types of chicory. Characteristic is the more or less present "bitterness," formerly reviled and nowadays highly appreciated. Let a plant "bolt" once: chicory flowers are usually beautifully blue in color and smell of vanilla!
