Valerianella Salad Seeds

The plant forms a small rosette of burgundy-green leaves, curly along the edge; the presence of vitamins and minerals makes this crop useful for consumption.

Arguably the best tasting Red Chard with a mild, juicy flavour and, unlike many Red Chards, has no harsh aftertastes. With excellent tolerance to downy mildew, Chard 'Fantasy' is ideal for successional sowings through the spring and summer.

Vegetation is 130-140 days. One of the last open pollinated varieties in existence that still retains excellent eating quality and uniformity. Bred in Hurst, England, Hercules is quite cold hardy. The medium to tall plants yield plump, green sprouts.

Here’s a gorgeous all-purpose slicing/pickling type. The plants are of bush habit, usually running no more than 18” or so, making them superior for small gardens, containers, or anywhere space is tight. Fruits hold well on the plants.

undreds of rose-coloured, pea-like flowers occur in dense, nodding clusters at the tops of the stems, which are covered with velvety hairs. The effect is more attractive in colonies than with isolated plants.
