Chicory (Green) Seeds

Green chicory, also known as radicchio, is a leafy vegetable that tastes somewhat bitter and reminiscent of chicory and endive. This is not surprising, it belongs to the same family. Green chicory is best sown late in the season as it tends to bolt. Thus, it can be sown after the harvest of an early grown vegetable. This allows you to harvest twice from the same field. Green Chicory seeds are small.
