Both visually appealing and highly productive, Rainbow Chard is a versatile addition to the kitchen garden, offering a mild, earthy flavour similar to spinach and silverbeet. It can be harvested continuously by picking outer leaves, encouraging ongoing growth throughout the season. Well-suited to Melbourne’s climate, it thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers rich, well-drained soil with regular moisture. It performs well across multiple seasons, particularly from autumn through to spring, and can tolerate light frost. Ideal for garden beds, raised planters, and pots, this hardy and easy-to-grow vegetable also adds a decorative element to edible landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"957\" data-end=\"1009\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"957\" data-end=\"966\"\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"966\" data-end=\"969\"\u003eShrub - Clumping \/ Grass-like \/ Mounding\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1011\" data-end=\"1064\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1011\" data-end=\"1027\"\u003eMature Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1027\" data-end=\"1030\"\u003eHeight: 30–60 cm\u003cbr data-start=\"1046\" data-end=\"1049\"\u003eWidth: 30–50 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1066\" data-end=\"1101\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1066\" data-end=\"1077\"\u003eAspect:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1077\" data-end=\"1080\"\u003eFull Sun\u003cbr data-start=\"1088\" data-end=\"1091\"\u003ePart Shade\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1103\" data-end=\"1173\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1103\" data-end=\"1117\"\u003eFlowering:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1117\" data-end=\"1120\"\u003eDoes not flower under Melbourne's weather conditions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1175\" data-end=\"1210\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1175\" data-end=\"1193\"\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1193\" data-end=\"1196\"\u003eNot applicable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1212\" data-end=\"1313\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1212\" data-end=\"1231\"\u003eKey Attributes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1231\" data-end=\"1234\"\u003eAnnual\u003cbr data-start=\"1240\" data-end=\"1243\"\u003eEdible Leaves\u003cbr data-start=\"1256\" data-end=\"1259\"\u003eFast growing\u003cbr data-start=\"1271\" data-end=\"1274\"\u003eOrnamental edible\u003cbr data-start=\"1291\" data-end=\"1294\"\u003eSuitable for Pots\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1315\" data-end=\"1428\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1315\" data-end=\"1328\"\u003eToxicity:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1328\" data-end=\"1331\"\u003eLeaves are edible for humans; however, contains oxalates and should be fed to pets in moderation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1430\" data-end=\"1499\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1430\" data-end=\"1451\"\u003eCompanion Plants:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1451\" data-end=\"1454\"\u003eLettuce\u003cbr data-start=\"1461\" data-end=\"1464\"\u003eSpinach\u003cbr data-start=\"1471\" data-end=\"1474\"\u003eBeetroot\u003cbr data-start=\"1482\" data-end=\"1485\"\u003eOnion\u003cbr data-start=\"1490\" data-end=\"1493\"\u003eGarlic\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plantex","offers":[{"title":"TRAY OF 12 X 10CM POTS","offer_id":47761850761381,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/2911\/0693\/files\/Chard-RainbowBetavulgarisRainbow.png?v=1777185142","url":"https:\/\/theplantbroker.com.au\/products\/chard-rainbow-beta-vulgaris-rainbow","provider":"The Plant Broker","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
