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.
Excellent substitute for coffee
Bought seeds in advance of my next growing season. Arrived quickly and well packaged.
The only place to buy seeds
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.

So far, everything we have purchased has had an almost 100% germination rate. And what sprouts has grown quickly and strongly. We are now big fans of MIgardener seeds!
I’ve had issues trying to germinate seeds bought from big box stores. Come to find out they are old and a waste of money. MI Gardener seeds are fresh, germinate quickly and stay good for years. My Pablo lettuce is still growing and I look forward to harvesting and eating it!
Love this green tomato! I almost missed the ripeness window because I didn’t realize that it would get the sweetest tinge of pink. (I thought it was a red tomato that was just starting to turn color, until I squeezed it!) The flavor is fresh and mild and sweet—and the color is beautiful.
Finally blooming this September to the point I’m harvesting to create soothing balms with glorious colored blooms!
I had great success with the Red Acre Cabbage. Every plant produced a nice sized head, and each weighed at least 2 pounds. The taste is great and slightly sweet. I will definitely grow this again.
