Chicory

From LoveToKnow Garden

Chicory (Cichorium) - A pretty native plant, from 2 to 5 feet high. C. Intybus, bearing in summer and autumn handsome blue flowers. It is worth introducing as a wild plant into localities where it is not common. It is a rampant grower, and will take care of itself even in arable crops, but it dislikes heavy and cold soils. The seed may be sown on rubbish heaps and in stony places, old quarries, and by roadsides.
