When nearly full grown tie the outer leaves together to blanch. 1 oz. o 500 feet of drill 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 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 letter, 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.
