Cichorium intybus var foliosum
cleo:
Hi Ina
It`s a regular here, Pan di Zucchero.
Stephan.

That's it Stephan. One type here is called sugar loaf or sugar bread and that's the green loof. I'll order the type Pluto for next year, supposed to make big heads. -Ina
Palustris:
Anyone who has tried the Mixed Green/Red leaf slad packages from most Supermarkets will have tasted this as it is a regular ingredient.
Cichorum intybus is a rather a pleasant quite ta,ll blue, pink or white flowered British native. We have it in the border. Only problem is that the young leaves look a bit thistle like, so get weeded out.
ina:
That's the wild cichorium intybus, a pretty border plant but I don't think there's any eatable on it. -Ina
