This salad green, also known as escarole, produces large, broad leaves on plants up to 15" (38cm) across. The leaves are slightly twisted and have a sharper flavor and more substance than lettuce. Use mixed with other greens in salads, as cooked greens, and as a garnish. Tastiest crops are timed for harvest during the cool weather of autumn.

Sowing: Direct sow in mid -spring only where summers are cool. Other wise, sow in late summer for autumn harvest. In mild winter areas, plant in fall also.
Care: Blanch hearts, to make mild and tender, by tying outer leaves together over center 2-3 week before harvest.
Harvest: Pick entire plant using inner leaver for salads and outer leaves as garnish or as cooked greens.
Your Health: Good source of fiber, potassium and vitamin A.



FROM OUR SEED CATALOG:
  • Broad leaf variety with slightly crumpled leaves fringed at the edges and a near white mid rib. Needs little blanching. Best in cool weather so plant for a Fall harvest. 90 days.
