RADICCHIO 'Rossa di Treviso'

A radicchio variety with long, green leaves, turning dark red during the cooler months. These red leafed chicories are delicious winter salads from autumn to spring. Their characteristic flavour is slightly bitter and can be modified by blanching. Pick the young leaves when reqiured. They are hardy, deep rooting plants and will need an open position, unfussy about the soil. 400 seeds
