Welldales chicory mix tortoise food seeds produce red ball averto, a selected Italian chicory variety grown for tender leafy greens and attractive burgundy radicchio style centres. Chicory, also known as Cichorium intybus, is a useful plant for reptile owners who want to grow their own tortoise food, fresh salad greens and natural grazing trays at home. Young leaves can be harvested for feeding and used as part of a varied tortoise diet alongside other suitable edible weeds, grasses, flowers and leafy plants. This medium to late chicory variety is well suited to pots, trays, raised beds, greenhouse borders, outdoor growing areas and tortoise enclosure planting, with colour often improving as temperatures cool.
