From summer through early fall chicory [Cichorium intybus] can be counted on to bloom. The cornflower-blue blossoms open in the morning and tend to close by mid-afternoon. They often may offer the only cheerful splashes of color along roadsides or in fields and vacant lots.
It isn't just the flower that's attractively useful about the plant. Chicory's roots are helpful in two ways. One lies in their easy spread over and cover of land that's left bare after human and environmental disturbances. Another lies in their contribution to a drink whose recipe survives a passage of thousands of years from the time of the ancient Egyptians.
