Endivien Escaroly e Endibia 
Culture the same as lettuce. 
A desirable salad. When bleached by exclusion 
of the sun, gather all the leaves and tie them for 
a couple of days. Open after a rain to give them a 
chance to dry out, as otherwise the leaves begin to 
rot. The inside will turn into a beautiful yellowish- 
green, making the plant very attractive for salads 
and garnishing.

CULTURE. Sow in hotbeds very early in the 
spring; thin them out as soon as big enough to be 
handled to 3 or 4 inches each way, and transplant 
to 2 or 3 feet apart in very rich warm ground. Do 
not plant them outside till nights are real warm, as 
the least frost will, if it does not kill them, check 
the growth, and it will take 2 or 3 weeks before they 
get over it. Hoe often and hill up gradually till 
they blossom. One ounce to 1,500 plants.
