Swiss Chard Lucullus

50 days. The Lucullus Swiss Chard seed variety produces large green leaves and white stems. This variety is one of the best for gardeners looking for a swiss chard that is delicious and flavorful, as white swiss chard tends to have the best texture and taste. These stems are strong and crunchy, with luscious leaves, both excellent steamed or used in salads. The taste of the leaves is quite like that of spinach, with bitter undertones. This crop can grow in zones 6 and up, and the leaves can be harvested after fifty days.
