Swiss Chard

swiss chard plantsSwiss chard is a close relative of the beet and produces large, glossy green leaves with thick, brightly colored stems rather than an enlarged root. In many years, Swiss chard will grow through the entire season, as it is both heat and cold tolerant. Most cultivars of Swiss chard will perform well in Kansas. Multicolored mixes are the most common, but varieties with single-colored stems can also be grown. Para información en español, visite este sitio web.
