Blond Full Heart can form large heads of green with a centre of paler lemony-green, nice colour and great flavour. We like this in a salad with either a sweet chilli dressing or a honey based one that contrasts and balances the fresh tart edge that endive can have. Price for 40 seeds.
SOW & GROW: best sown from March onwards for summer and autumn use. Protect sowings made in August & September for use from early winter. Sow all year round for cut and come again use. Germination can be erratic in hot weather. Space single plants 20-35cm apart. Cut heads & leave to resprout. Keep watered. Self-blanching varieties naturally produce a paler centre to the plant without needing to be covered.
