Chicory has pale blue flowers in ones, or threes, on the upper part of the tall, but zig-zag stem. The flowers are very close to the stem, pointing away from the stem and are dandelion-like, but have only ray florets, no disc florets in the centre. The colour of the flowers is at its best in the morning, and fades in the afternoon. Chicory has many uses: the roots of Chicory are used, roasted and ground, as a caffeine-free coffee substitute sold as Chicory Coffee; the flowers are used to garnish salads; the buds are pickled and the leaves applied as a poultice for inflammation of the skin. The flowers open in the morning and are heliotropic, following the sun, but close at midday when the sun is over-bright. The leaves yield a blue dye, the flowers, paradoxically, a yellow dye.
