Chicory

[โ€“] ccunning@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Radicchio is a cultivar of chicory.

Oh, thanks! I didn't know that.

No problem - I thought it was a super interesting fact when I learned it!

The description seems misleading to me. It says lilac flower without indicating that color is meant, not plant species.

Good point, I've edited the description.
