Treviso Radicchio is a 2" organically grown Italian chicory with elongated, tapered heads of deep burgundy-red leaves and crisp white ribs. Its bold color and pleasantly bitter bite bring gourmet flair to grow pots, containers, raised beds, and cool-season garden rows.

A classic of northern Italian cooking, Treviso radicchio is wonderful grilled, roasted, or braised, and adds a crunchy, colorful bite to salads. Rich in antioxidants, fiber, and vitamin K, it is happiest in cool weather, and the bitterness mellows and sweetens after a touch of frost.

Fun Fact: Radicchio from the Treviso region of Italy is so prized that growers traditionally blanch the late-season heads in the dark to turn them sweet, tender, and crisp.

Organically grown and shipped with care — ready to bring color, crunch, and a little Italian flair to your garden and your table.
