As pretty to look at as it is good to eat, Ruby Red silverbeet or Swiss chard is among the most beautiful plants ever to grace your veggie garden. Apart from being pretty, the deep coloration of the leaves and their ruby red veins are an indication of extra nutrients that make your fresh-picked leaf vegetables even healthier to eat. Young leaves are ideal for salads and green smoothies, while the mature leaves are great as an everyday vegetable.

  • Growing Information

    How to Sow

    Silver beet tolerates most soils, but preparation with compost is a help. Best sown direct, sowing in trays also works well. Plant 1-2cm deep at the correct spacing.

    How to Harvest

    Cut mature outer leaves off at the base using sharp scissors or a knife. Inner leaves mature quickly.
