Planting Instructions
Tips
A frisée-type (“Green curled”) of gourmet endive salad green. This variety forms a tasty head or “heart” that self-blanches a beautiful pale yellow. Leaves are long, frilly and green with a pale green succulent rib. A vigorous and tasty producer that is not bitter, it handles both hot weather and light frosts well. Slow to bolt.
Direct seed outdoors as soon as the soil can be worked or when soil temperature reaches 40 ℉. Plant 1/4" to 1/2" deep, 2" apart, thin to 18" apart.
likes rich soil and plenty of moisture at root level
for blanched hearts, tie up the tops for the last 2-3 weeks of growth
for earlier harvest start indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost
plant again in late summer for fall harvest
