With red, pink, golden orange, and yellow stems set off by dark green foliage this beautiful mix of coloured stems could be grown in the flower garden and not be out of place. Silverbeet Rainbow Chard makes a great colourful addition to stir-fries and even salads.
All of the plant parts are edible. It is an easy vegetable to grow in the home garden and is well suited to all climates, although it does best when you avoid growing it in very hot months. It will cope well enough with mildly hot weather.
Silverbeet is very tender and tastes similar to Spinach, however it is a member of the beet family. This leafy green is a very nutritious vegetable, providing vitamins, minerals, and powerful plant compounds. They can be harvested young for salads or left to mature for cooking.
