TPF212 Five Color Silverbeet ( Bright Lights )
A beautiful Chard, its colors are brilliant (pink, yellow,
orange, red and white.) This chard originated in Australia.
Very mild, ornamental, and tasty. Great for market growers and
specialty markets and pretty enough to plant in the flower
garden, so delicious, one of our favorite greens! (Sold in
stores as "Bright Lights")
1A032 Perpetual Chard
50-60 days. This European chard is smaller than the garden
chard that is commonly seen in America but it is much more
productive, with smooth dark green leaves and slender green
stems. It is drought and frost tolerant and slow to bolt. It
produces a long perpetual harvest. If you only plant one salad
green in your garden this year, it should be Perpetual
Chard.
