This is one of the most upright growing and attractive of all the chards. Eldorado Swiss chard is a luxurious looking plant with stems of gold and leaves that are dark green, deeply savoyed, with wavy margins. The thin stems branch into veins on the leaves but keep their gold colour for a high contrast look. This variety will produce gorgeous microgreens in just two weeks. By 30 days, it is ready to eat as baby greens. By 55-60 days, it’s ready for the market table – or dinner table. Grow in cool weather for best results. If grown from winter into summer it has a higher rate of bolting.
Matures in 55-60 days. (Open pollinated seeds)
