  • Species and varieties: Cichorium endivia, commonly known as endive, is a leafy vegetable belonging to the Asteraceae family. There are two main varieties: curly endive (Cichorium endivia var. crispum) and broad-leaved endive (Cichorium endivia var. latifolia).
  • Hybrid or heirloom: Endive seeds can be found in both hybrid and heirloom varieties. Heirloom varieties are often preferred for their traditional taste and resilience, while hybrid varieties may offer improved disease resistance and uniformity.
  • Pruning and training: Endive does not require extensive pruning. However, thinning seedlings to about 6-12 inches apart will ensure proper growth and air circulation. Regularly remove any damaged or diseased leaves to maintain plant health.
  • Fertilization needs: Endive benefits from a balanced fertilizer applied at planting and again mid-season. A 10-10-10 (N-P-K) fertilizer is suitable. Organic options like compost or well-rotted manure can also be used to enrich the soil.
  • Hardiness zones: Endive is suitable for USDA hardiness zones 4-9. It thrives in cooler climates and can tolerate light frosts.
  • Climate requirements: Endive prefers a cool growing season with temperatures between 60-70°F (15-21°C). It can be grown in spring and fall in most regions, and in winter in mild climates. It requires full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil.
