Swiss Chard offers a continuous harvest of leaves or the entire plant can be left to mature and harvested whole. The plants will tolerate some frost and can be planted in spring or fall. They can be overwintered in warmer climates, and/or reseed themselves for new early spring growth. Swiss Chard is easy to grow, disease resistant, and will tolerate poor soil and drought. The leaves can be enjoyed raw in salads, steamed, stir-fried, or any way spinach is used. The stalks can be eaten like celery. Flamingo has lightly crinkled leaves with very ornamental pink stalks and veining. It is an excellent variety for market or home.
