There are three different types of chicory 'forcing' chicory, red chicory or radicchio and 'non-forcing' chicory. 'Palla Rossa', or sometimes called 'Palla rossa Zorzi Precoce', is a radicchio with a delicate, tangy flavour. It is best planted later in the year as it colours better in cooler weather.
It’s a leafy salad green, and not related the radish even though the names are similar. Radicchio is also sometimes called Italian chicory to further complicate things, though it is closely related.
For a second fall crop, you can start another batch of seeds about 8 to 10 weeks before you expect to get the first frosts of winter
Don’t flood the plants.
Once they go to seed (bolt), the leaves will almost immediately get too bitter to eat..
