Attractive large dark green endive with finely cut lacy leaves, delicately crispy ribs and a creamy heart. Excellent in combination with lettuce salads having a mild nutty flavour. Large plant gives plenty of volume and is very useful for baby leaf or microgreen cutting. Like lettuce prefers cool weather but is easy to grow.
Maturity 60 days from transplant.
