SW762A - Silverado
Silverado Swiss chard seeds produce relatively compact plants that have heavily savoyed, deep, dark green leaves with bright white stems. A taste test favourite, its beautiful appearance and very high resistance to bolting make it a great home garden and market variety. Silverado will be ready to harvest as baby greens in only 25 to 30 days. Compared to some other varieties, this is a fairly slow growing chard that eventually reaches 35-40cm (14-16") in height. Harvest individual leaves by cutting from the base, or cut whole plants for easy transport and display on market tables.
Matures in 60 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)

How To Grow
The succulent leaves of Swiss chard can be used much like spinach. You can even use the big ones to wrap “cabbage” rolls. The colourful stems can be cooked like asparagus. Enjoy the small leaves in salad. They grow easily and well in our climate and stand in the garden for many months, giving a long harvest from one planting.
