...specifically one of the more palatable varieties, something good for a salad. Chicory seems to love poor soil/heat/neglect/limited watering, and tends to get established. All this I found out by accident after planting some deer plot mix. have had chicory growing for a couple years now, some is fairly decent salad greens, others less so (very bitter). Seems to be a "permaculture" plant at least for me...However would like some chicory with tastier leaves. Hope someday to also dig up/roast the roots for a little Nawlins-style coffee. Purplish blue flowers are a bonus.
Have various peppers, gourd seeds and some other stuff for trade, if you've got what I want let me know what you're after. Might just have it. |
