An absolute She Grows Veg icon, we love it so much we put it in our logo! This is a pink heirloom Fordhook chard which means it can grow larger than other chards to around 60cm. It gets its name from the candy cane coloured stems and not a peppermint flavour as some might believe. This chard has a delicious flavour and is best enjoyed sautéed or gently steamed to retain all of its goodness.
Average 100 seeds.

Sow in module trays 1cm deep. Grow on in the greenhouse until plants reach a height of around 5cm after the last frost.
Ready to harvest in 50 days. Harvest regularly by selecting a few stems from each plant to promote fresh growth and to extend the cropping season. More mature plants become frost hardy and will generally survive winter meaning you’ll have a harvest into the next year.
