Bonnie Plants 19.3 oz. Potted Swiss Chard Plant

For veggies that look good and taste great, add Bonnie Plants Swiss Chard to your garden. Start with a live plant instead of seeds to add an instant burst of color and texture to veggie gardens. You'll enjoy it in meals sooner, too! Colorful gold, pink, purple, red, or orange stems contrast with dark-green or bronze crinkled leaves of this cool-season plant. The unique, pretty plant brightens garden spaces, so grow it where you can enjoy the view. Use highly nutritious Swiss Chard like spinach or beet greens: harvest young leaves to eat fresh, or add any size leaves to quiches, casseroles, stir-fries, or smoothies. For a long harvest, start by snipping the outer leaves first: the plant continues to produce new leaves. Plant Swiss Chard in full to partial sun, 12 to 18 inches apart. It appreciates some shade in hot climates. Swiss Chard grows 18 to 24 inches tall and matures in 45 days. Be sure to water your plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. Bonnie Plants live plant varieties are designed for your gardening success, whether they're disease-resistant, heat-tolerant, space-savers, or produce abundant harvests.
