Cut the plant at any height and it will re-grow again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso known as Catalogna, this is not a dandelion, but a chicory. Steamed like spinach, they have a pleasant flavour. Raw, they add a mild bitterness to a salad. May bolt mid-summer from spring planting. Italian dandelion is quite cold hardy and suitable for winter growing. If allowed to bloom, it sends up tall stalks of attractive, edible blue flowers that produce seeds that are easy to harvest and save for next season. This chicory is much beloved by Italian gardeners and chefs alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"quickfacts pt-4\"\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"facts\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmazing flavour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast growing notched leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold hardy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen pollinated seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatures in 65 days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"West Coast Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48126651269364,"sku":null,"price":5.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/6926\/1481\/files\/chicory-italian-dandelion-west-coast-seeds-8998263.png?v=1778074035","url":"https:\/\/www.ritchiefeed.com\/products\/chicory-italian-dandelion-west-coast-seeds","provider":"Ritchie Feed \u0026 Seed Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
