About This

  • Crisp Texture and Mild Flavor When Blanched: Batavian Full Heart produces broad, slightly curled leaves with a creamy-white heart that becomes tender and less bitter when well-blanched. The tight head structure gives the plant a thick, satisfying crunch, making it ideal for raw applications or quick sautés. When harvested at full size, the heart offers a mild, delicate flavor perfect for those new to endive or chicory.
  • Nutrient-Dense and Naturally Low Calorie: With only about one calorie per heart leaf, this endive variety is a low-calorie, high-nutrition option that’s packed with essential nutrients. Each head provides fiber, vitamins B, C, and K, plus minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium, and potassium—delivering up to 60% of the potassium in a banana. It's an excellent addition to health-focused gardens and clean eating lifestyles.
  • Versatile Uses for Healthy Meals: These thick, scoop-like leaves are ideal as chip substitutes for dipping into hummus, guacamole, or other spreads, adding a nutritious twist to snack time. They also perform well in warm salads, soups, and sautés. With its unique texture and structure, Batavian offers visual interest and versatility that appeals to both everyday home cooks and gourmet chefs alike.
  • Grows Best in Full Sun and Warm Soil: A warm-season crop that’s sensitive to cold and frost, Batavian Full Heart should be direct sown once the soil warms in spring. Nighttime temperatures between 55 and 75°F are ideal for flower and fruit development. The plant prefers moist, well-drained soil and grows as a leafy rosette, making it well-suited to garden beds with ample space and good drainage.
  • Self-Pollinating and Great for Succession Planting: As a self-pollinating biennial, Batavian Full Heart produces seed in its second year without the need for cross-pollination or insect involvement. To enjoy a continuous supply of fresh, crisp greens throughout the season, sow every 2 to 3 weeks in succession. This makes it an efficient and rewarding crop for gardeners who love consistent, nutritious harvests.
