Grow Chicory from freshly harvested Cichorium intybus wildflower seeds. Chicory is one of those wildflowers that you see everywhere, along highways, railroads, in open fields & abandoned lots. This versatile plant can be grown to add beautiful, pale blue, daisy like flowers to any area needing a bit of color. The plants will reach a mature height of roughly 24 to 60 inches tall and will span from 12 to 18 inches wide. Chicory, often referred to as Italian Dandelion, will grow quickly from seeds, establishing a deep taproot. This root system will allow them to survive in dry areas, with little to no moisture. Chicory will also use this deeply established root system to return the following growing season after all plant life above surface has wilted. These plants are known to attract an array of beneficial insects, such as butterflies, bumblebees, ladybugs & hummingbirds. Sow Chicory to help grow the honey bee population, as it is often visited by bumblebees and honey bees.
