GREEN CURLED ENDIVE 
THE “CHICOREE FRISEE” OF THE FRENCH 
An excellent salad plant, available long after the season for 
Lettuce, and more easily grown. The flavor is pleasantly bitter, 
stimulating and zest-giving. Is used also boiled as greens. 
Green Curled is the best for general use, and is easily 
blanched by covering the full-grown plants with boards or pieces 
of slate. After severe frost the plants’ may be removed and 
planted closely in a cellar for winter use. The seed should be 
sown in rows about 2 feet apart and Y% inch deep in the drill. 
When sufficiently grown, thin the plants out to 8 inches apart 
and cultivate thoroughly while growing. A very early crop may 
be grown by starting the seed in hotbed, greenhouse, or window 
box. Good results come from early spring sowing, and even 
better, when treated as a fall crop. Successional sowings during 
July give a continuous supply after cool weather, and with. a 
slight covering the plants may be kept in good condition well into 
November.
