Tasty
I grew this one several years ago for i had never tried growing Radicchio before. (And I got to grow everything at least once. I planted it in the spring though and got it out real early. I planted it where it would get afternoon shade once the trees leafed out. With a little watering and tender loving care, I did manage to get some small heads. I had in mind bigger heads, but it just could have been the growing conditions. It was a little bitter being it was picked in the onset of summer, but was still tasty in a salad. I think it would be great picked in the fall after a light frost. Mark Jenkins

great for two crops per year
I have grown this and used it both as a fresh leafy head and in the winter as a forced head as shown. My chef client loved the leafy head the best.
