    This is an excellent chicory. It’s the stems here not the leaves. Blanched for a few minutes and dressed with a lemon vinaigrette or lemon oil and Maldon salt it makes great salad. Hardy, it sometimes winters over in S. Oregon.

    Last year was my first year growing this Chicory. I planted late spring and I had decent plants by early summer. I was expecting this to be a stem chicory (it is not) so I waited and waited. Eventually I did make a roman salad with the leaves. It was ok but the plant was starting to bolt by then. This year I am going to try starting it later to in matures towards the fall.
