Chicory seeds produce a perennial wildflower that is not only lovely but beneficial as well. Chicory plants grow easily from flower seeds in sunny locations and in well-drained or moderately drained soils.
Chicory seed plants have clusters of 1 - 3 daisy-like flowers, in brilliant pastel blue, and they prefer medium to higher fertility levels and a pH of 5.5 or greater.
