SKU: 338007160 days — 'Pink Lipstick' chard produces deep-green, savoyed leaves with magenta-pink colored veins and stems. It is both beautiful and tasty and makes a nice addition to salad blends when the leaves are young or cooked when mature. Each packet contains one gram, which can vary from 30 to 50 seeds.
Planting Instructions:
As soon as the soil can be worked in early spring, in a location that has well-drained soil and receives about eight hours of full sun daily, sow seeds ½-inch deep, every 1 to 2-inches, in rows spaced 12 to 24-inches apart.
Cover with loose soil and keep moist until seedlings appear. Water weekly after that and cultivate to control weeds. When plants are 1½ to 3-inches tall, thin plants to eight inches apart.
Start harvesting individual leaves when they are about eight inches in length. The leaves become tough with age.
