Swiss Chard - Fantasia Orange (Seeds)

Description

Vivid golden orange stalks have thick, crisp, dark green semi-savoyed leaves with orange veining. The leaves possess the typical pleasing chard flavour and as they hold their colour very well, they make a colourful addition to any dish! Fantasia is slower growing than most of the chard group and has good bolting tolerance.  

How to Grow

Chard grows best in well drained soils with a pH of 6.5-7.5. Sow seed about 1-2 cm (1/2-3/4″) deep and 2.5 cm (1″) apart in rows 45 cm (18″) apart starting in mid spring. When using as an edible green, sow see every two weeks until early summer to help ensure continuous supply.
