AnnualCichorium intybus. Chicory is a versatile plant known for its bitter, flavorful leaves and vibrant blue flowers. Widely used in culinary applications, chicory leaves can be enjoyed raw in salads, adding a slightly bitter edge, or cooked to mellow their flavor. The plant’s roots are often roasted and ground as a coffee substitute or additive. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as fiber and minerals, chicory supports overall health. It’s also used medicinally to aid digestion and liver function.

Started Chicory and Italian dandelion in my garage under grow lamps. Goal is to transplant outside in backyard on a warmish day here in North Texas in January or February.
Germination for both is very good however the Chicory seedlings are bigger and stronger than the Italian dandelion under the exact same conditions.
Hope to harvest the greens in spring. Curious to see if the roots survive the hot summers and plants return next year.
I look forward in trying my luck growing Chicory.
Very easy to grow, has the sweetest little blue flowers.
I see them along the roadside in Michigan. They are beautiful ♥️

These were cut on April 22nd and planted April 23, 2025. They came up on May 4th. I'm in central SD, zone 4b. Next year, I'll get more!
Hard to leave a review just planted them.. but over all I was pleased when they arrived ❤️
I wasn't sure it would survive when I planted it, but it is growing. Very happy with my purchase
I immediately set this plant outside to begin hardening off. After about 2 weeks, I planted it in it's dedicated grow bag until I get a more permanent planter, and I must say it is living life. It has grown so much since I received it. I believe I'm going to remove the blossoms this year to continue promoting healthy growth.
Love this. I collect stickers on my garden notebook for fun and inspiration and this spoke to me.
