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.
I bought to grow next year. I'm happy with the value.
Excellent substitute for coffee
Bought seeds in advance of my next growing season. Arrived quickly and well packaged.

I can provide an updated review on my experience with Chickory Greens verses Italian Dandelion greens here in North Texas near Dallas.
While the heat is always a challenge in the summer months. here in North Texas, I have been able to trim green leaves from both Italian Dandelion and Chickory all summer. Both were planted in raised beds. Chickory was planted in full sun with a heavy 5 or 6 inches of shredded cardboard mulch. Chickory is hairy so the cardboard mulch also provided protection from getting dirty. No bug issues with either.
I like bitter greens. They seem to be very healthy with a number of health benefits. Chickory leaves are bigger than Italian Dandelion. Italian Dandelion leaves are large, but narrow with long smooth stems. Chickory has deep roots which helps in the Texas heat.
Rabbits like both plants. However I have seen no bug issues with either Chickory or Italian Dandelion. I like bitter greens and these two are my favorite garden plants along with onions, garlic, and garlic chives. It looks like with the brutal heat of North Texas, these two greens allow consumption year round.except in the winter months when I can switch over to Spinach. Spinach does well here in the colder winter months while bugs are not an issue. I think I have found the best options for fresh greens in North Texas all year long.

These are like XL cherry tomatoes (1.5-2 inches wide) that taste great and are uniform in size. I will be growing more of this variety next Spring.
Though they are not named Scotch Bonnet, they are definitely as hot and fragrant as a Scotch Bonnet pepper (and I'm happy I bought them to try). I bought more packets recently to be ready for next Spring and to share with my Jamaican family!
Highly recommended. Plants are super healthy and its my first gardening experience a succesful one. Thank you for this product. I love it so much i keep on growing more……!!!!
The seeds germinated very well. It was my first time ever growing radishes and I was pleased with how easy they were to grow.
This variety of sweet corn is incredibly durable in our warmer southern climate. It has endured hot temps and is even thriving. We look forward to enjoying our early fall harvest soon.
