A great addition to any garden, Ruby Red Silverbeet, also known as "Rhubarb" Swiss Chard, was first introduced in 1857. Originating from the Mediterranean, this Heirloom variety produces bright candy apple red stalks and veins with crumpled, dark green leaves. Plants grow to an average height of 45-51cm tall with a 45-61cm widespread. Individual leaves can be harvested for greens when they reach 15-20cm tall.
You can harvest the whole plant at the soil's surface, but to ensure continued growth and another harvest, leave an inch of stem. Outer stalks can also be harvested individually, leaving the heart to grow.
Cook the stalks as you would asparagus and the leaves as spinach, or enjoy raw in salads. Silverbeet is a rich source of vitamins A, K, and C and an excellent source of minerals, dietary fibre and protein.
