A space where it can thrive
Grow as a cultivated garden crop in a bed or suitably sized container. The illustrated nursery pot is a presentation, not a recommendation for the mature plant’s root space.
Ask about availabilityAvailability, size, pot and price will be confirmed in store. Pictures illustrate the plant type.

Your care routine
Watering
Keep soil steadily moist without leaving roots waterlogged.
Soil & drainage
Fertile, well-drained soil with organic matter.
Temperature
Plan sowing for the crop’s preferred season. Protect young plants and containers from severe frost; local conditions affect timing.
Planting
Direct sow or transplant in spring, thinning clumps so each plant can develop broad leaves.
Harvest
Cut outer stalks near the base and leave the centre to keep growing.
Through the seasons
Pick frequently for tender stalks. In mild coastal winters protect the crown and remove storm-damaged leaves.
When your plant needs help
- Keep the centre intact while picking colourful outer stalks; this is one mixed-colour chard selection.
Pets & little ones
