Red Radicchio with 3-4‰Űť round heads and variation in color. Mature when heads form, outer leaves are bitter. We found it best for leaf cuttings to add a bitter savory flavor to salads. Excellent grilled with olive oil and mixed into risotto. Best in the fall for largest heads and is half frost tolerant.
