How to Grow:

Sow as soon as the soil can be worked in spring, then every two weeks for a continuous harvest. Plant seeds 3 mm deep in rows 45 cm apart. Provide consistent moisture throughout the growing period for optimal results. Harvest leaves by cutting 2.5 cm above the main base, which may allow for regrowth. Flavor and texture are best when leaves are young. Germination occurs in approximately 7 days.

Chicory 'Cicoria Catalogna' is a flavorful, easy-to-grow option to bring authentic Italian flair to your dishes.
