Swiss Chard 'Virgo' / 'White Silver' / 'Verte À Carde Blanc'

Product number: 283501
Origin: Mediterranean region
Latin: Beta vulgaris

ORGANICALLY GROWN SEEDS! A productive variety with dark green leaves, succulent, broad and bumpy. The leaf midrib becomes wide and shiny white, but the leaves can, of course, also be harvested young. Even as a microgreen, Swiss chard is a delicacy and then tastes genuinely (mildly) like beetroot! The growing time to full maturity is approximately 2-3 months.

Names:
Latin: Beta vulgaris
Dutch: Snijbiet
Also known as: Witnervige Warmoes
English: Leaf Beet, Swiss Chard

Sowing method: A fast-growing crop suitable for all soil types, sown from April-June in rows ± 30 cm apart. Sown densely: (like spinach) chard can be cut repeatedly. Be sure to keep the heart intact. Sown thinly: (one seed every 5 cm) chard will grow with thick ribs. Sown in pots: April-July outdoors, year-round indoors. For young salad leaves.
