A beautiful chard mix of red, pink, orange, yellow and white stalks with contrasting green and maroon leaves. Harvested as baby leaf in less than 6 weeks. Both the tender leaves and stalks are easy to fry, steam, blanch or add to an omelette. This variety of chard is less hardy and doesn't handle frost as well, so best not relied on as your only winter green.

Only Available in the UK
Its celery-like nutty mild taste enriches soups and stews and it tastes amazing when roasted or mashed. Our favourite recipes include celeriac schnitzel, battered and pan-fried and celeriac chips with curry powder. We're selling particularly this variety because it has all the qualities you would want from a celeriac. Its smooth skin makes it easy to clean, it's resistant to septoria, good for storing and is bolt-hardy which makes it suitable for early cultivation under protection.
When to sow: Feb – Aug
Spacing: 25 x 25cm
Chard tips: Direct sow in shallow drills of 1.5cm depth. When plants are 15cm high, thin to appropriate spacing.
Early sowings can be made in modules starting in February and then transplanted outside 4-5 weeks later to crop May onwards. Sowing after midsummer will provide you with leaves from autumn until the following spring.
