Biennial & Perennial Weeds
CHICORY Cichorium intybus
Life Cycle: Perennial Plant Description:
Chicory is a perennial that resembles dandelion when in the rosette stage. Rough, basal leaves 2 to 10 inches long form a rosette. 1 to 3 flowers– usually blue, but sometimes purple and occasionally white — form in axils of upper leaves. Fruits can be weakly angled or ribbed, tipped by a crown of minute scales.
Treatment: Apply 12 to 16 fluid ounces of DuraCor ® herbicide per acre. Apply low rate to the rosette stage. Use higher rate on larger plants prior to flower.
