Swiss Chard 'Lucullus' is a prolific variety producing an abundance nutritious green leaves on celery-like stalks from early spring until the first frosts.
The large, deliciously succulent leaves are mild and sweet, they make a great alternative to spinach, and if left to flower, even the flower stalks can also be cooked and eaten like sprouting broccoli.

How to take care of Swiss Chard Lucullus
Sow from early spring until mid summer (producing chards), or until late summer (leaves) in rows in open ground. For chards you have to thin out in the rows. Perpare the chards as you prepare celery or asparagus.
