Description
Botanical Name: Cichorium endivia
500 seeds
An excellent crisp vegetable which will liven up salads. Eaten green, the leaves are a little bitter, but blanched for a few days they develop a milder taste. Try as an interesting alternative to lettuce. For best results sow in a well drained soil, or soil that has been enriched and broken up by the addition of organic matter.

Drop seeds 6mm (quarter-inch) deep, in rows 25cm (10in) apart. Repeat at fortnightly intervals for succession. Thin out to 20-25cm (8-10in) apart and keep well watered. |
