Chard Peppermint Pink is a versatile addition to any garden, offering both ornamental appeal and culinary value. The vibrant stems add a pop of color to salads, stir-fries, and side dishes, while the nutritious leaves can be used similarly to spinach.

In the garden, Chard Peppermint Pink grows to an impressive height of 24-30 inches, making it a standout in raised beds or container gardens. Plant these chards 8-12 inches apart to allow ample space for growth. Each 3.5-inch pot typically contains 3-5 plants, providing good value and allowing for multiple harvests throughout the growing season. The plants’ upright growth habit and striking coloration make them an excellent choice for edible landscaping, blending beauty with functionality.

Growing Success Tips:

• Ensure consistent moisture, especially during dry spells
• Harvest outer leaves regularly to encourage continued production
