Beta vulgaris

HEIRLOOM. Dark green, thick, tender leaves. Heavy yield even in hot weather.

Classic Burpee-bred heirloom chard, with thick, dark green, tender leaves and enticing, slightly bitter, earthy flavor. Can be used in dishes calling for spinach; sautéed with a bit of butter and sprinkling of lemon juice is a feast in itself. Produces dependably heavy yields from late spring till winter even in hot weather. Thrives in full sun.

  • Begin harvesting leaves when they reach 5-6 inches or are large enough to use.
  • Break off the outer leaves at their base, taking care not to damage the inner leaves.
  • Plants that are harvested regularly will continue to produce new growth from the center of the plant.
  • Both the leaves and stalks are edible raw, steamed, and sautéed, but avoid the lower 2-3 inches of the stalk as it may be fibrous and tough.
  • Swiss chard may be blanched and frozen. Stems may be pickled.
