Known for their excellent heat and cold tolerance, these plants are easy to grow and maintain, making them an excellent addition to any vegetable garden.

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS:
Direct sow rainbow Swiss chard seeds for planting about a week after the last spring frost, planting it 1/2" deep in compost-enriched soil in full sun. For harvesting the entire plant, space the plants 4-5" apart; for continual harvesting of the outer stalks, space the plants 8-10" apart for larger growth. For a continuous summer crop, plant more Swiss chard every two weeks. Germination should occur in about a week. Swiss chard can survive light frosts, and can be planted as a fall crop. Keep the soil evenly moist and weed free with a layer of mulch. Moisture is especially crucial to the seedlings in the first stages of their growth.
