Early Red Treviso - Bitter Curly endive
Ref : P0825
- Cichorium intybus
Bag of 2 grams
This old-fashioned variety has large, thick green leaves that turn red as cold weather approaches, with a pleasant flavor and an elongated head. It can be forced to produce chicory.
This variety first forms a large rosette of leaves that disappears in autumn, replaced in late autumn or early winter by a small, less bitter, chicory-like head of young leaves. Cold weather and frosts remove the bitterness from the leaves, giving them a more pleasant taste.

Sow directly in place, in rows 30 cm apart. Cover the seeds lightly and press down with the back of a rake. Thin to 30 cm in all directions. If sown too early, it will bolt quickly.
Chicory needs regular watering, which can be reduced by mulching. Bitter endive is more resistant to very low winter temperatures than escarole or curly endive. They can be left in the ground over winter in most regions.
