Swiss Chard ‘Bright Lights’ can be harvested from mid-summer to late autumn, and if soils are not excessively wet overwinter, it will re-emerge to give an unbelievably early spring crop! Guaranteed to brighten the vegetable patch, or why not grow this colourful swiss chard in ornamental borders or in a patio container. Height: 50cm (20″). Spread: 40cm (16″).
