Italian Dandelion (Chicory) Herb Garden Seeds


True (Wild) Dandelion Herb Growing Habits

Non-GMO (Taraxacum officinale) Italian (Chicory) Dandelion plants grow as vigorous tender perennials. As heirlooms, chicory will develop upright and reach 2-5" tall. Chicory herbs as Italian Dandelion loose-leaf varieties begin producing baby greens that should be picked early in the season. Once chicory reaches full maturity, it grows forest-green serrated leaves, with nectar-sweet paisley flowers by late spring or fall. Next year, your nutrient-rich dandelion roots will be ready. As your region has its first frost, dandelion herbs die back, keeping their roots overwinter.

Italian Dandelions are not technically dandelions but are a family member of the loose-leaf chicory family. As these vigorous and tender perennial herbs come from Italy, Italian Dandelions original name was "“Cicoria" which over time became associated with these green cool-season dandelions.
