SEEDS - SWISS CHARD RHUBARB CHARD 3 g

$329
Taxes and shipping calculated at checkout.

Pretty enough for the flower garden, this richly-flavoured chard has wide petioles and veins that are deep burgundy red, resembling rhubarb stalks. The leaves are delicate and tender. This heirloom variety first appeared in 1857. 60 days, OP.

Specifications
  • Starting
    Sow seeds 1cm (½”) deep, spaced 10-30cm (4-12″) apart in rows 45cm (18″) apart.
  • Growing
    Ideal pH: 6.0-6.5. Swiss chard prefers loose, deep, and fertile soil that is rich in organic matter. Plenty of consistent moisture is required, especially as plants grow larger. It grows best in full sun, but will tolerate light shade in summer. A liquid fertilizer or compost tea applied twice during summer will keep chard growing well.
